telnetd.c software and telnetd.8 documentation do not correspond with
each other. The invocation options for the two are give conflicting
information, etc. This applies to Inetutils 1.5.
The documentation says:
/usr/libexec/telnetd [-BUhlkns] [-D debugmode] [-Iinitid] [-S tos]
[-X authtype] [-a authmode] [-edebug]
[-rlowpty-highpty] [-u len] [-debug [port]]
The program itself expects:
Usage: telnetd [OPTION]
Options are:
-a, --authmode AUTHMODE specify what mode to use for authentication
-D, --debug[=LEVEL] set debugging level
-E, --exec-login STRING set program to be executed instead of /bin/login
-h, --no-hostinfo do not print host information before login has
been completed
-l, --linemode[=MODE] set line mode
-n, --no-keepalive disable TCP keep-alives
-U, --reverse-lookup refuse connections from addresses that
cannot be mapped back into a symbolic name
-X, --disable-auth-type AUTHTYPE
disable the use of given authentication option
Informational options:
-V, --version display this help and exit
-L, --license display license and exit
