Philip,
We just had a bug reported which looks like the problem
you are seeing. The bug is:
6614543 The telnet utility in non-global zones cannot be used
under certain conditions
The synopsis is misleading but the data in the bug seems to
match what you are seeing. I have not had a chance to investigate
this bug yet but I am going to start looking at it.
Thanks,
Jerry
