Hi,

I have found the following problem with in.telnetd of the remote.tar.gz
package:

Any try, to stop scrolling via XOFF (Ctrl-S), let the connection hang.
Not one keypress is able, to wakeup the connection, especially not
XON (Ctrl-Q).

I have tried, to reproduce this problem under four circumstances:

- Terminalapplication via in.telnetd: 				hangs
- Windows console, starting `telnet' of the remote package:	hangs
- Windows console, CYGWIN=tty					hangs NOT
- Windows console, CYGWIN=notty					hangs NOT

Environment:
	NT4SP3,
	latest snapshot B21.0 (0.8/1/1),
	CYGWIN=binmode ntea [no]tty      <-- alternatively
	`inetd -d /usr/local/etc/inetd.conf' as service as described by Sergey,
	Terminalapplication TeraTerm V2.2, TERM=vt320,
	installed termcap and terminfo.

Does anybody have experiences, too, with this phenomenon, especially with
older snapshots, or does anybody know, how to workaround this?

Greetings,
Corinna
