The problem is, of course, that the old telnetd had a well-known
Berkeley-derived BUG.  NCSA's code up through 2.2 depended on
that bug; I understand that the problem is fixed in NCSA Telnet
2.3.  I'm not sure about the fixedness, though.

Clarkson University Telnet v2.2 works with the NeXT 2.0 telnetd.
It's available from omnigate.clarkson.edu (128.153.4.2) via anon-ftp.  
NCSA Telnet 2.3beta is available at ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu.
