System name:		mystery
Type and version:	KN02ca 7.6F (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		PMAG-DV 

What were you trying to do?
I was trying to telnet to husc3.harvard.edu, but I forgot to type the
domain stuff, and was working from the command line, and so typed
"telnet husc3"

What's wrong:
Here's the interaction (the "<mystery:~> nu?" part of the prompt is my doing)::

<mystery:~> nu? telnet husc3
husc3: <mystery:~>

So as you can see I got what appeared to be a normal prompt with an
husc3: prefix.

What should have happened:
Error message, something like "no such host"
