I'd assume telnet is at the end of one of your hosts and you're trying to
test for it.  Is it defined in /etc/services ?

Somewhere in the bb-services file you have the "telnet" option enabled.
Not sure exactly why it isn't recognized, it might be some whitespace
issue. The cut-and-paste you have looks like there might be a <tab> char
in front, and I'm not sure if the code handles all whitespace ok.

Hi Hendrik, 

Yes u are correct, there was a space in just before the command. I have removed and it has gone back to green now . 
Thanks
