	Slackware *IS* vulnerable -- I spoke with the author. There's a 
fixed in.telnetd available at:

	ftp://ftp.cymru.net/pub/linux/security/in.telnetd.gz

	The correct placement for this, once downloaded, is 
/usr/sbin/in.telnetd in Slackware 3.0. Dunno about other dists or indeed
other versions of Slackware.
