rh6 remote user discovery.

This may sound trivial.. but since a recent ssh / rh issue was posted.. I
figured I should inquire about the following:

when one telnets into a rh6 box, and enters a valid user name, with a blank
password... it takes three attempts before the connection is closed.

if one uses a bogus user... it takes four attempts with blank passwords.

I belive this falls under the same curtian as ssh... if so.. is this
a pam issue.. and is it fixed via the same route as ssh?
