[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] 4.3 Telnet and CR characters

jbvb@ftp.UUCP (James Van Bokkelen) (01/20/88)

As distributed, 4.3 had a number of problems in its Telnet server which
hadn't been in 4.2.  I believe that the cause was a decision to make the
4.3 server translate incoming CRs to Newlines.  This accounts for your
problem (and that is why Rlogin works - it doesn't use telnetd).

This has been corrected in the 4.3 source, fixes have been distributed
on the "tcp-ip" list and can be FTP'ed from ucbarpa.berkeley.edu (I may
actually mean "ucbvax", there).  The file is "ucb-fixes.tar.Z".  Of
course, that doesn't help you unless you have source for your Sun.

Did you call us and ask us that question?
