(i.e. hostname.subdomain.domain.edu) When I first installed the SNAP, I was getting problems with the telnets as well. I got a strange message about a function not having the right parameters, or something (unfortunately I don't remember it) I recompiled telnet and telnetd and they worked fine from then on. This may be unrelated as I was installing over an old distribution, but just thought I'd mention it just in case it's not. Also, I too am using the 951104-SNAP, a SMC-elite 16C and DES and Kerberos.
