I am not, or have ever run telnetd. I installed on July 4th, and cvsupped to 4.x Stable on the 16th. I have not yet applied the patch for telnetd because I don't use that daemon. Something worth finding out is the file the system consults to get the default flags for the login command when a user logs in. If -p is included, then I think we're safe.
