Hey Lionel,

We get this quite a bit too but I've never bothered to really
investigate.  A quick grep through my logs shows 25 machines throwing
Nessus false positives (not limited to telnet services) on the last scan
through campus.

I'm working on service fingerprints all day today so I'll add this to
my todo list of things to check into.

Great!  I'll hold off on applying Lionel's patch since you are working
on this.  Let us know what comes of it.

Cheers,
-F
