What were you trying to do?
Test a problem with the dialup telnetd, but that wasn't important.
What's wrong:
I typed
(mhbraun@medic) ~/% telnet express
when I meant express.dialup.mit.edu
and I got:
...including Athena's default telnet options: "-ax"
express: Error 0
What should have happened:
I should have gotten an error that said 'no such host' or maybe 'Matt you
bonehead', not Error 0.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
telnet(1) ?
