Basically, for telnet, any IAC       (character 255) needs to be converted to two IACs (ie: convert 0xFF to 0xFF       0xFF). Not doing that in one direction or the other is what the normal       problem with file transfers over telnet ends up coming down to.       --- SBBSecho 3.32-FreeBSD        * Origin: BBSDev.net - The BBS Developers Network (1:103/1)       SEEN-BY: 10/0 1 102/401 103/1 17 705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/187       SEEN-BY: 129/14 305 153/7715 154/110 218/0 1 109 215 601 700 810 840       SEEN-BY: 218/860 880 900 226/30 227/114 229/110 112 134 200 206 307       SEEN-BY: 229/317 400 426 428 470 664 700 705 266/512 291/111 301/1       SEEN-BY: 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45 633/280 712/848 902/26 5020/400       SEEN-BY: 5075/35       PATH: 103/1 218/700 229/426           |
