No it has nothing to with 7/8 bit thing because the telnet
"server" in maximus is running 8 bit.. The problem is that
Maximus isn't taking care of control charecters is beeing send twice.. So
formfeeds fx. is beeing send as FF FF but maximus doesn't take care and
remove the extra FF..

I were having a headache yesterday, so I really did have problems, about
thinking logically.

Bo
