Yeah, that's the privileged port thing. You can use something like 'setcap'
or you can take the easy way out and change the ports in Mystic to something
non-privileged (e.g. above 1023 -- like 9000 for telnet, for example).
Additionally, that'd probably cut down on hack attempts as well vs. using the
standard port 23.

According to the docs, starting with version 1.0.2, DOSEMU configuration
files are no longer in /etc but in the user's HOME directory in ~/dosemu.

Hope that helps!
