Well, the same thing happens here.  I believe the problem is with the
parity setting.  My VMS machine handles connections properly and I can
then telnet to a unix box, but directly connecting to the unix box
doesn't.  Instead of seeing a carriage return, it sees something else.

   This is a test of the emergency signature system.  Were this an actual
   signature, you would see amusing mottos, disclaimers, a zillion net
   addresses, or edifying philisophical statements.  This is only a test.
