I've just installed NetBSD 0.9 on a 386 with a WD8003 Ethernet card. I
did my install via ftp, which worked fine, configured the machine, and
booted it. I can ping it from another host just fine, and even FTP
from it, but when I try to telnet to it I never get a login prompt.
Telnetd does run; I can see it in the ps listing.

Has anyone any advice? Thanks.
