[Dxspider-support] Connection Closed by Foreign Host

[Boudewijn (Bob) Tenty]

Dave,

Echoing is not caused by dxspider but the telnet negotiation itself as 
port 23 uses special rules.
Avoid port 23 and this negotiation doesn't take place. (7300, etc.)

See http://www.dxcluster.org/main/installation_en-4.html, section 4.8 
Telnet echo.


73,

Bob VE3TOK
