Are you absolutely certain that you have a) replaced in.telnetd w/ a
fixed version or b) have a statically compiled wrapper around /bin/login
to clean the environment of unwanted variables? The description of the
attack leads me to strongly beleive he's attacking w/ the LD_PRELOAD bug.

Curious,
Jacob
