&gt; Can someone give me some advice as to what this means?  I am seeing 
&gt; some of these in my redhat 9 base install machine inside a corporate 
&gt; firewall.

	This is the telnet daemon stating that it's client (telnet) existed unexpectedly.  Perhaps because the window was closed (via the close
button) instead of via an EOF.  Sorry, that's the WHAT and one possible WHY.  There are many possibilities.  Off the top of my head, there's kill, X shutdown, client machine fault (power, memory, unplugged from LAN for too long, ...).

	HTH!

P.S. Telnet isn't secure, y'know ;-)
