I'm curious about tcpmux on my SCO504 system.

I think I understand it's function, but why does it not respond as
described in RFC1048? Clearly telnet is available despite the results
shown below. Typing help doesn't produced the expected response either.

# telnet 192.168.1.1 1
Trying 192.168.1.1...
Connected to 192.168.1.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
/etc/telnetd
-Service not available
Connection closed by foreign host.
