    MH> That being the case it sounds like when nested telnet sessions go to   
    MH> non-Mystic systems, something isn't getting passed to the client for   
    MH> negotiation.  Or maybe it is trying to negotiate with the original   
    MH> (non-nested) telnet and not the client.     
      
   If I had to guess whatever layer is being used (SIO, etc) doesn't do telnet   
   negotations at all or doesn't know when to request binary.   
      
   I need to set up a test with other systems so I can see if sending some telnet   
   commands as a client can resolve it.  I can't remember when the last time was   
   that I tried to test anything like this with a non-Mystic system (out of my   
   own "laziness" of not setting up another BBS software to test with) so I need   
   to do that to see what I can figure out.
