tlntsess.exe performs console redirection in the official Windows telnet server. It's ugly. In the case of ctm, I can assure you the application runs correctly, it's the server that doesn't know how to send the output over the connection
Thanks for the tip. Searching for tlntsess I was able to find this page

The Windows cmd can simply run without a console, no hidden trick. It assumes a serial terminal is connected to stdin/stdout, although I'm not sure what kind of terminal it assumes (see: the control character used by the console-less implementation of cls)
Ok thanks. I'll spend a bit more time researching it and see what I can come up with.
