Have you tried using a raw connection into it instead of telnet? Try this for
science.. make sure you have netcat (nc) installed. Create a file called raw.sh
with this in it:
settings=$(stty -g)
stty raw -echo
nc $1 $2
stty $settings
then 'chmod +x raw.sh' and then './raw.sh ipaddress port'. Just one thing to
note, when you finally disconnect, you need to hit a key to return to your
prompt.
The reason for this is telnet does some negotiation on connect, and you're not
running telnetd. Your client says "Hey, let's agree on some stuff!" but your
server isn't listening for that.
