Telnet seems to be broken.

[bga]

I was trying to use telnet to test my POP3 server. I got connected to it, got the banner but at the first command I tried to send, it got stuck. I am not sure if it sent the command or if it got stuck just after I pressed enter and before sending it. Debugging the main (and only) telnet thread shows this backtrace:

(gdb) bt
#0  0xffff0102 in ?? ()
#1  0x00301e95 in select () from /boot/beos/system/lib/libroot.so
#2  0x002113c5 in process_rings ()
#3  0x002147a3 in Scheduler ()
#4  0x002148eb in telnet ()
#5  0x0020f270 in tn ()
#6  0x00210145 in main ()
(gdb)

telnetd doesn't even start here:

getpeername(): socket operation on a non socket.

Ok sorry to bother. telnetd is not supposed to be started from the commanline.

Telnet actually works (I can connect to my router built-in configuration tool, or some other things), but apparently Ican't access my POP server either (with telnet on linux I get some error message, but nothing with ours)

Fixed in hrev43049. Unlike linux one, our telnet (BSD derived) used \r\0 as end of line, instead of the more usual \r\n. While most telnet server accept that, POP/SMTP ones won't get it.
