Casper Dik <casper@holland.Sun.COM> pointed me to ftp.cray.com:/src/telnet
where I was able to compile the original source upon which (according to
Casper) the Solaris 2.5 telnetd is based.
This new telnetd solves several of my problems, including the correct
setting of TERM to "network" (like back in the SunOS days). My problem
is not completely solved as there are still some PPP clients that
still have a few strange problems, but I am quite happy with the progress
made on this problem.
Thanks to Casper and
john benjamins <johnb@Soliton.COM>
for replying to my query.
