inetd telnet slowness


I wrote about a month ago with this problem,  but didn't manage to work out
a viable solution.

If I stop inetd and run "in.telnetd -debug"  All is well.  It appears to
capture the machine/user correctly and  I am imediately logged in (bypassing
the login/passwd prompt).

With inetd running, telnet starts,  then hangs for about 3 minutes,  finaly
ginving me a "Login:" prompt.  I assume that Inetd didn't pass usable
machine/user information to the in.telnetd,  and that the delay and eventual
"login:" prompt is in.telnetd  timing out waiting for  login information,
but I could be wrong about this.  Rlogind works fine with inetd,  and I
assume it uses a similar validation mechanism.   I'd appreciate any
assistance.


The diff of the Debug logs with and without inetd:

with inetd:
