>Description:
telnetd(8) mentions the -U option. When -U is used the variable
registerd_host_only is set to 1 in the code and is never referenced
anywhere else.
>How-To-Repeat:
use the -U option of telnetd
>Fix:
Either remove the -U option from the telnetd man page or fix the code.
Fix for the code at line 934 of telnetd.c is to call getnameinfo with
the NI_NAMEREQD flag set when registerd_host_only is set to 1.
