Subject: Latest BSD telnet code

Well, it's only been almost 3 years since the last anonymous ftp release
of the BSD telnet/telnetd code, but a newer verision is (finally) available.

It can be picked up via anonymous ftp from:

        ftp.cray.com(128.162.15.3):src/telnet/telnet.94.02.07.NE.tar.Z

Yes, this version does support Solaris (Thanks to Charles Hedrick
at Rutgers).

This code should pretty much match what will be on the 4.4-Lite
distribution, but it is set up to be compiled on many different
architectures.

This release does not have the encryption code (hence the "NE")
for two reasons:
	1) The encryption option is being folded into the
	   authentication option, and this new code has not
	   been written yet.
	2) U.S. government policies...

I'd like to get the encryption code available, but how to do
that still has to be worked out.  (The encryption code is on the
domestic 4.4BSD tape, and will be on the domestic 4.4-Lite tape.)

This does have the authentication code, including code for Kerberos V5.

There is a README file in the same directory (which is also in
the tar file) that has more information.

P.S: You can also get the source for "nettest", the client/server that
I use for doing memory-to-memory TCP transfer rate measurements in:
        ftp.cray.com(128.162.15.3):src/nettest/nettest.92.11.09.tar.Z
