Subject: libc unknown server error
Message-Id: 
<Pine.LNX.3.91.950614201633.3137D-100000@piranha.chu.cam.ac.uk>
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

Package: base (?)
Version: 

telnet gives the wrong error message - instead of 'Unknown host' the 
following happens:

>piranha:~$ telnet non-existent-site
>non-existent-site: Unknown server error

I believe this is due to libc.

Jon.
