I do not understand your problem completely, but I think you are trying
to login to some host with telnet using a terminal.
In this case there are two sections of the communication link to
consider. 1 the rs232 link between your terminal and your localhost, and
2, the networklink between your localhost and the remotehost.
The settings you alter with stty outside of telnet are only the
settings between your terminal and the localhost. Inside telnet most
stty settings are meaningless. On some systems you may even alter
the baudrate, and still see all characters!
So first you should check your settings outside telnet and see
if they are good for 8bit transmission. Then i suspect you won't have
any problems inside telnet al well.
