    MH> Mystic can do a double telnet back to Mystic.  That is the only working

   I believe the way Mystic works is that its behavior varies depending on the   
   connection circumstances.  For example:   
      
   If you are connected via a telnet client and you do an outbound telnet, then   
   Mystic knows that your telnet client can handle the telnet negotiation, so it   
   connects but passes any telnet negotiations directly to your client and any   
   response from the client directly to the outbound telnet server.   
      
   But if you are connected via SSH or RLOGIN and you do an outbound telnet   
   connection, then Mystic knows that it must translate from telnet to SSH/RLOGIN   
   and it will handle all of the telnet negotiations so they never reach your   
   client (because your client won't be able to handle telnet stuff).
