This won't work because telnet is not a "RAW" terminal emulator.  It has
special escape characters use to abort and such.  These characters have
a nasty habit of wrecking Xremote.  I have been more successful with
"rlogin", but even that will crash for the same reasons that telnet will.
It just takes longer.  Try to log in directly and this will all get 
better!

Good luck!!!
