[Winsock] Telnet server Echo?

[Chicane]

I'm currently programming a Telnet Server within VB.

Everything goes okay with my Win2k Telnet Client.

But when I access the telnet server from Freebsd i.e I get some strange echo or something.

For example

Wink2:

I type: Help
Displayed: Help


Freebsd:

I type: Help
Displayed: HHeellpp

Is there any way I could perhaps fix that?

I suspect that there is the capability of having a "Local echo". I.e. the Telnet client can display what it is sending to the Telnet server.

As a server, you might need to identify whether the client has local echo on or not. (Sorry - if I knew how to do that I would have added it here!).

Thanx for the information. Some other people told me it could have got something to do with local echo.

Now I got to find out how to anticipate that!
