Is this still true?? I haven't looked at the RFC, but the man page under
FreeBSD seems to assume that 8 bit is possible.
from the manpage:
------------
TELNET(1) FreeBSD General Commands Manual TELNET(1)
NAME
telnet - user interface to the TELNET protocol
SYNOPSIS
telnet [-8EFKLacdfrx] [-S tos] [-X authtype] [-e escapechar] [-k realm]
[-l user] [-n tracefile] [host [port]]
DESCRIPTION
The telnet command is used to communicate with another host using the
TELNET protocol. If telnet is invoked without the host argument, it en-
ters command mode, indicated by its prompt (telnet>). In this mode, it
accepts and executes the commands listed below. If it is invoked with
arguments, it performs an open command with those arguments.
Options:
-8 Specifies an 8-bit data path. This causes an attempt to negoti-
ate the TELNET BINARY option on both input and output.
