Well I asked the local DEC people for a patch 6 Months ago. No response either.
Then the other day I called them again and told them someone on the net said
that there was a patch. Two hours later I got it, tarred, compressed and uuencoded.

(01/10/90) telnetd.gw, double login prompt
The DECnet/Internet gateway version of telnetd (telnetd.gw) in its
non-gateway mode (i.e., as just a regular telnetd) would incorrectly
prompt twice for a login name. Patched telnetd.gw's have a patch date
of 01/09/91 (do "what /usr/etc/telnetd.gw | fgrep PATCH").
