Telnet-server sometimes returns "0d 00 0a" (<CR><NUL><LF>) due to which the telnet client does not understand it as <CR><LF>

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • Telnetd sometimes returns "0d 00 0a" (CR NUL LF) due to which the telnet client does not understand it as CR LF
  • We are writing our own telnet client and it cannot understand "0d 00 0a" (CR NUL LF) as a line feed code. It always expect "0d 0a" (CR LF) as a line feed code.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
  • telnet-server
