1977.0. "DFU V2.0 : ftp/telnet looses hostname characters" by BACHUS::ROELANDTS (Wa d'es ma da ve ne stuut) Thu May 29 1997 13:15

    
    
       Hello,
    
       Has anyone seen this before ? A customer reports the following problem,
       as we don't have the possibility to test this here, I'm asking it here.
    
       Kind Regards
    
          Guy ROELANDTS
    
    
    AltaVista Firewall 2.0, losing characters in the tcp/ip name when
    trying to resolve the tcp/ip address, "www.globetrotter.com" is changed too
    "www.globtrotter.com" character "e" is missing. The problem occurs only
    with "ftp" and "telnet" NOT true "wed http:" and "nslookup"
