Hello -- telnet problems

I have an odd one for you..

1/2 of my portmasters, when teleneting to a unix host (anywhere in the
world) will open and then immediately close ... like:

nac-rox1> telnet iago
Trying 206.249.65.30 ...
Connected - Escape character is '^]'.
Connection Closed

nac-rox1> telnet [ANYWHERE ELSE]
Trying ANYWHERE ELSE ...
Connected - Escape character is '^]'.
Connection Closed

but, when i try from the other portmasters:

nac-whi2> telnet iago
Trying 206.249.65.30 ...
Connected - Escape character is '^]'.

Linux 1.2.13 (iago.nac.net) (ttyp0)

iago login:

Any ideas? There is no rhyme or reason -- I have checked:

o ComOS version - all different versions on different boxes.
o Frame or Dedicated T1 - not this.
o Reverse lookups, they are all set.
o routes... no problem..
