Take ssh, for instance. If I'm logged in locally as "steve" and then try to $ ssh twovoyagers.com then ssh automatically attempts to log me in under user name "steve" at twovoyagers.com. I must instead $ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] Perhaps there's a telnet client which exhibits the same behavior. -- Steve Ackman http://twoloonscoffee.com (Need green beans?) http://twovoyagers.com (glass, linux & other stuff)
