Description razelime 2019-12-20 11:02:03 UTC 
I'm using  busybox in android via magisk module, I'm trying to execute a telnet command from shell using a hostname which is stored in the /system/etc/hosts file. but the telnet command is not able to use it. However though if I punch in the raw IP of the destination it works.

I'm not sure what file you need from me to upload
