Package: telnetd
Version: 0.16-3

On Debian/PowerPC (I'm running on a PowerMac), I can RSH into the box
(here named "wozniak") just fine, but when I try to telnet in, I get:

murphy:~# telnet wozniak
Trying 10.0.4.16...
Connected to wozniak.greatfox.net.
Escape character is '^]'.
telnetd: getpty: Permission denied
.
Connection closed by foreign host.
murphy:~#

------------------------------------------------

HOWEVER... if I set /usr/sbin/in.telnetd setuid root, it works. Since
in.telnetd is NOT setuid root on my x86 Debian boxen, I'm curious as to
why I must set it setuid on the PPC...
