Correct. A future release of OSx will include telnetd in the kernel. This is based on the telnet state machine implemented by Chuck Hedrick of Rutgers, which in turn is a departure from work originally done at NYIT by Rick Ace (if memory serves). > Can anyone confirm/deny this?

I believe that it may be made available as a 4.4 PTF, though I don't know how difficult this is. If you want it, ask your tech support people -- the more customers ask for it, the higher the priority it will get.
