telnet linux vs telnet win9x - echo problems!

When I telnet in windows I can get to the login: and then type the pwd
and its off to a good start.

When I telnet in Linux, I get to the login: ok, but after that all my
inputs are ecchoed to screen and the ctrl chars show carets and
gibberish and the link times out.

What am I doing wrong here?

Is "Red" the answer to your riddle?

Seriously, you need to give a bit more information (and clarification)
if you want anybody to diagnose your problem properly.

For example, what are you trying to telnet into? What application are
you using to telnet _from_ Windows? And Linux? (And why are you using
telnet instead of ssh?)

What are Software Patents for?
To protect the small enterprise from bigger companies.

What do Software Patents do?
In its current form, they protect only companies with
big legal departments as they:
a.) Patent everything no matter how general
b.) Sue everybody. Even if the patent can be argued
invalid, small companies can ill-afford the
typical $500k cost of a law-suit (not to mention
years of harassment).

Don't let them take away your right to program
whatever you like. Make a stand on Software Patents
before its too late.
