:Beyond the fact that using TELNET across public networks is

This is a client side issue.

:The only work around is for the user to escape back to the TELNET>  
:prompt on the
:Windows client and type 'unset crlf' and then continue.

C:> telnet
C:> unset crlf
C:> open foo.bar
...
C:> quit

and it will keep the setting so in future they can just "telnet foo.bar"

Or try saving the following as a something.reg and have them import it.
