subject: Strange rlogin.js behavio

I'm having an odd issue with rlogin.js.

Years ago I set up Synchronet (3.18) on Windows 7 as a game server, on my internal network. Since then I've only connected to it from a Mystic BBS and it's worked great.

Recently I've been working on Synchronet (last pull from git was just a couple days ago) running on Debian 11.9.

I'm able to make a rlogin connection fine via rlogin.js; however, I'm having an odd issue with CR/LF. Whenever I press the "Enter" key, extra characters are being sent making it impossible to use/play the remote door game.

LORD for example, behaves like below:

What would you like as an alias?
Name: Bob
Bob? [Y] : .
What would you like as an alias?

So when hitting enter, an extra "." is being sent.

My connection under Online Programs looks like this:

Name: LORD 4.06
Internal Code: NHLORD406
Start-up Directory: 
Command Line: ?rlogin  -c [v01d]@NODE_USER@ -t xtrn=lrd406
(everything else is default)

Anyone have any ideas what might be going on or what I should check?

Thank you for any suggestions
Travis
