>Description:
	The telnetd(8) manpage does not describe the authentication types/strings
	one can use with the -X flag.  I had to go look at the libtelnet code,
	tracing it back to the auth_disable_name() function, then the authtype_names
	variable defined in arpa/telnet.h:

const char *authtype_names[] = {
        "NULL", "KERBEROS_V4", "KERBEROS_V5", "SPX", "MINK", NULL, "SRA",
        0
};

	Thus, the strings you can use with -X are NULL, KERBEROS_V4, KERBEROS_V5,
	SPX, MINK, and SRA.  These are independent of what's given to the -a
	flag (e.g. -a off).  I have no idea what the NULL authtype is, but the
	others make perfect sense.

	I ran into this situation when setting up dgamelaunch for FreeBSD, and
	found that telnetd kept asking for SRA authentication when I wanted
	absolutely no authentication capabilities.

	This applies to both RELENG_6 and RELENG_7.
>How-To-Repeat:
	n/a
>Fix:
	Document the above authentication types in the manpage.
