"Strange Telnet Option 242" on ISC 2.2

Hi everyone,

We're using NCSA Telnet with ISC 2.2, and seeing a rather odd thing from the
package.  The number "2" is coming up once in a while, accompanied (on the
message screen) by the message "Strange Telnet Option 242".

Any ideas why only the ISC machines would do this, and not any of our
network of Sun Workstations?  This didn't happen under 2.0.2's TCP/IP...
We'd really like to stop it from happening!

Any assistance appreciated!
