Daring to challenge the will of the almighty Leviam00se, James Fabin
(jfabin@ee.net) had the courage to say:

: Can someone please help point me to where I can FTP libtelnet.a so that I can 
: compile telnet for FreeBSD?

: Thanks a million!
: James Fabin
: jfabin@ee.net

Uh...

a) FreeBSD already comes with telnet (binary and source).
b) As a consequence of a), FreeBSD also comes with libtelnet
   (binary and source).

Am I missing something here?
