Subject: telnet bug on close followed by open (part 2) Index: ucb/telnet.c 2.10BSD Description: Telnet can hang when doing a close followed by a open. Repeat-By: telnet> toggle options telnet> open foobar telnet> close telnet> open foobar and telnet will hang. Fix: The earlier fix which changed the return value of bye() is still needed, the problem was that patch only fixed part of the problem. The rest of the solution is to clear the local telnet's option list. *** telnet.c.old Fri Jul 27 14:25:20 1990 --- telnet.c Tue Jul 31 13:39:39 1990 *************** *** 1984,1989 **** --- 1984,1991 ---- /* reset his options */ for (op = hisopts; op < &hisopts[256]; op++) *op = 0; + /* reset our options */ + bzero(myopts, 256); } return 0; }
