Hi. Thanks for the report. Is your bug in telnet or telnetd? If it is the telnet client, doesn't ctrl-] work in this situation, to allow you to quit or re-open the connection? Generally, please describe what operating system and environment you installed Inetutils on, and the exact sequence of steps required for us to be able to reproduce the problem. /Simon
