The FF fx hex sequences look like telnet IAC sequences to me. In most  
device servers these can be disabled. It's often called raw mode,  
transparent mode, or something similar. I'll take a look at the Xport  
doc later tonight. Maybe the whole extra character problem can be  
avoided by setting the right config option on the Xport. You don't  
really want a telnet connection, just a TCP 'pipe'.
