-This code should work, but there are no guarantees.

-Oct 23, 1995
-
-This is a bugfix release.
-
-       The change in the previous release from using makeutx() to
-       pututxline() caused problems on SunOS/Solaris.  It has been
-       changed back to using makeutx().  Symptoms include users
-       getting error messages when logging in about not being able
-       to open the tty.
-
-       Using memmove() instead of memcpy() caused problems under
-       SunOS 4.x, since it doesn't have memmove().  Config.generic
-       has been modified to include mem.o for SunOS 4.x.
-
-       Some new code was added to telnetd to do some environment
-       variable cleanup before execing login.  Thanks to Sam Hartman
-       at MIT for pointing this out.
-
-       A couple of other minor bugfixes.
-
-May 30, 1995
-
-This release represents what is on the 4.4BSD-Lite2 release, which
-should be the final BSD release.  I will continue to support of
-telnet, The code (without encryption) is available via anonymous ftp
-from ftp.cray.com, in src/telnet/telnet.YY.MM.DD.NE.tar.Z, where
-YY.MM.DD is replaced with the year, month and day of the release.
-If you can't find it at one of these places, at some point in the
-near future information about the latest releases should be available
-from ftp.borman.com.
-
-In addition, the version with the encryption code is available via
-ftp from net-dist.mit.edu, in the directory /pub/telnet.  There
-is a README file there that gives further information on how
-to get the distribution.
-
-Questions, comments, bug reports and bug fixes can be sent to
-one of these addresses:
-               dab%borman.com@localhost
-               dab%cray.com@localhost
-               dab%bsdi.com@localhost
-
-This release is mainly bug fixes and code cleanup.
-
-       Replace all calls to bcopy()/bzero() with calls to
-       memmove()/memset() and all calls to index()/rindex()
-       with calls to strchr()/strrchr().
-
-       Add some missing diagnostics for option tracing
-       to telnetd.
-
-       Add support for BSDI 2.0 and Solaris 2.4.
-
-       Add support for UNICOS 8.0
-
-       Get rid of expanded tabs and trailing white spaces.
-
-       From Paul Vixie:
-               Fix for telnet going into an endless spin
-               when the session dies abnormally.
-
-       From Jef Poskanzer:
-               Changes to allow telnet to compile
-               under SunOS 3.5.
-
-       From Philip Guenther:
-               makeutx() doesn't expand utmpx,
-               use pututxline() instead.
-
-       From Chris Torek:
-               Add a sleep(1) before execing login
-               to avoid race condition that can eat
-               up the login prompt.
-               Use terminal speed directly if it is
-               not an encoded value.
-
-       From Steve Parker:
-               Fix to realloc() call.  Fix for execing
-               login on solaris with no user name.

-
-This is a list of some of the changes since the last tar release
-of telnet/telnetd.  There are probably other changes that aren't
-listed here, but this should hit a lot of the main ones.
-
-   General:
-       Changed #define for AUTHENTICATE to AUTHENTICATION
-       Changed #define for ENCRYPT to ENCRYPTION
-       Changed #define for DES_ENCRYPT to DES_ENCRYPTION
-
-       Added support for SPX authentication: -DSPX
-
-       Added support for Kerberos Version 5 authentication: -DKRB5
-
-       Added support for ANSI C function prototypes
-
-       Added support for the NEW-ENVIRON option (RFC-1572)
-       including support for USERVAR.
-
-       Made support for the old Environment Option (RFC-1408)
-       conditional on -DOLD_ENVIRON
-
-       Added #define ENV_HACK - support for RFC 1571
-
-       The encryption code is removed from the public distributions.
-       Domestic 4.4 BSD distributions contain the encryption code.
-
-       ENV_HACK: Code to deal with systems that only implement
-               the old ENVIRON option, and have reversed definitions
-               of ENV_VAR and ENV_VAL.  Also fixes ENV processing in
-               client to handle things besides just the default set...
-
-       NO_BSD_SETJMP: UNICOS configuration for
-               UNICOS 6.1/6.0/5.1/5.0 systems.
-
-       STREAMSPTY: Use /dev/ptmx to get a clean pty.  This
-               is for SVr4 derivatives (Like Solaris)
-
-       UTMPX: For systems that have /etc/utmpx. This is for
-               SVr4 derivatives (Like Solaris)
-
-       Definitions for BSDI 1.0
-
-       Definitions for 4.3 Reno and 4.4 BSD.
-
-       Definitions for UNICOS 8.0 and UNICOS 7.C
-
-       Definitions for Solaris 2.0
-
-       Definitions for HP-UX 8.0
-
-       Latest Copyright notices from Berkeley.
-
-       FLOW-CONTROL: support for RFC-XXXx
-
-
-   Client Specific:
-
-       Fix the "send" command to not send garbage...
-
-       Fix status message for "skiprc"
-
-       Make sure to send NAWS after telnet has been suspended
-       or an external command has been run, if the window size
-       has changed.
-
-       sysV88 support.
-
-   Server Specific:
-
-       Support flowcontrol option in non-linemode servers.
-
-       -k Server supports Kludge Linemode, but will default to
-          either single character mode or real Linemode support.
-          The user will have to explicitly ask to switch into
-          kludge linemode. ("stty extproc", or escape back to
-          to telnet and say "mode line".)
-
-       -u Specify the length of the hostname field in the utmp
-          file.  Hostname longer than this length will be put
-          into the utmp file in dotted decimal notation, rather
-          than putting in a truncated hostname.
-       
-       -U Registered hosts only.  If a reverse hostname lookup
-          fails, the connection will be refused.
-
-       -f/-F
-          Allows forwarding of credentials for KRB5.
-
-February 22, 1991:
-
-    Features:
-
-       This version of telnet/telnetd has support for both
-       the AUTHENTICATION and ENCRYPTION options.  The
-       AUTHENTICATION option is fairly well defined, and
-       an option number has been assigned to it.  The
-       ENCRYPTION option is still in a state of flux; an
-       option number has been assigned to, but it is still
-       subject to change.  The code is provided in this release
-       for experimental and testing purposes.
-
-       The telnet "send" command can now be used to send
-       do/dont/will/wont commands, with any telnet option
-       name.  The rules for when do/dont/will/wont are sent
-       are still followed, so just because the user requests
-       that one of these be sent doesn't mean that it will
-       be sent...
-
-       The telnet "getstatus" command no longer requires
-       that option printing be enabled to see the response
-       to the "DO STATUS" command.
-
-       A -n flag has been added to telnetd to disable
-       keepalives.
-
-       A new telnet command, "auth" has been added (if
-       AUTHENTICATE is defined).  It has four sub-commands,
-       "status", "disable", "enable" and "help".
-
-       A new telnet command, "encrypt" has been added (if
-       ENCRYPT is defined).  It has many sub-commands:
-       "enable", "type", "start", "stop", "input",
-       "-input", "output", "-output", "status", and "help".
-
-       The LOGOUT option is now supported by both telnet
-       and telnetd, a new command, "logout", was added
-       to support this.
-
-       Several new toggle options were added:
-           "autoencrypt", "autodecrypt", "autologin", "authdebug",
-           "encdebug", "skiprc", "verbose_encrypt"
-
-       An "rlogin" interface has been added.  If the program
-       is named "rlogin", or the "-r" flag is given, then
-       an rlogin type of interface will be used.
-               ~.      Terminates the session
-               ~<susp> Suspend the session
-               ~^]     Escape to telnet command mode
-               ~~      Pass through the ~.
-           BUG: If you type the rlogin escape character
-                in the middle of a line while in rlogin
-                mode, you cannot erase it or any characters
-                before it.  Hopefully this can be fixed
-                in a future release...
-
-    General changes:
-
-       A "libtelnet.a" has now been created.  This library
-       contains code that is common to both telnet and
-       telnetd.  This is also where library routines that
-       are needed, but are not in the standard C library,
-       are placed.
-
-       The makefiles have been re-done.  All of the site
-       specific configuration information has now been put
-       into a single "Config.generic" file, in the top level
-       directory.  Changing this one file will take care of
-       all three subdirectories.  Also, to add a new/local
-       definition, a "Config.local" file may be created
-       at the top level; if that file exists, the subdirectories
-       will use that file instead of "Config.generic".
-
-       Many 1-2 line functions in commands.c have been
-       removed, and just inserted in-line, or replaced
-       with a macro.
-
-    Bug Fixes:
-
-       The non-termio code in both telnet and telnetd was
-       setting/clearing CTLECH in the sg_flags word.  This
-       was incorrect, and has been changed to set/clear the
-       LCTLECH bit in the local mode word.
-
-       The SRCRT #define has been removed.  If IP_OPTIONS
-       and IPPROTO_IP are defined on the system, then the
-       source route code is automatically enabled.
