If that is true, MSFT sure love to not follow standard and make other
system looks bad.

Since you say the command is hanging ... I'm thinking that the paging
terminal is not sending the standard responses that the telnet command
is expecting.

I've had this kind of problem when I try to telnet into a custom
application tcp/ip server.  The server is basically handling a stream,
but it's not a standard terminal stream, so the iSeries telnet command
can't handle it.

The DOS telnet client can, because it's character based ... not block
based.

Of course, I'm not an expert, so I could be wrong.
