   I am running NetBSD and FreeBSD (latest releases) and I am having
   trouble with the telnetd and tty settings.  Its seems that there is
   some bug when a user disconnects that new attempts to get past
   login: and password: to be in a screwed up state.  This requires a
   user to type ^J after entering a username and/or password.  Sometimes
   the login prompt doesn't appear at all or when you type <CR> you get
   ^M as an echo.

This bug was fixed in NetBSD-current several weeks ago.
