Here's the deal:
-x requires -a
The meaning of -K is "not -a". This could be documented better.
I couldn't reproduce the false "status" message claiming encryption was
turned on, and I take it from our zephyr conversation that you had this
situation:
cartoon express.dialup
A -> B -> C
telnet -safe telnet -safe -K
and the "status" message we saw was for the A-B hop.
In summary, telnet -K/-safe options interact like ls -C/-1 options.
