I've seen this symptom when telnetting from a BSDI 1.x machine to another
BSDI box as well as to my FreeBSD box at home. All connections are SLIP.

Haven't seen the missing character problem.

Have seen a missing *password* prompt, on occasion, when telnet's delivered
a login name, but only on the BSDI box.
