what  exactly  doesn't  work?  before-mentioned  procedure?
probably  i  didn't  make myself clear enough, but if you suppose that
setting  "Allow  Service to interact with desktop" will make net start
displaying  output in your telnet session then you're wrong. it won't.
the  sole  purpose  of  this  procedure  is  to _illustrate_ where the
problem   is.   To  _solve_  the  problem, you should either apply the
patch yourself or wait for updated inetutils package.
