Enter telnet-mode via the rsh command with
remote-shell-program set to "ssh" in a situation where ssh
keys have been set up for the remote host and therefore
there is no password prompt.

The telnet-mode code continues trying figure out the type of
system it is connected to via telnet-initial-filter for a
much longer perioud than normal. Depending on the output
from the remote host, the following issues may arise:

1. M-p (comint-previous-input) breaks. Instead of retrieving
the previous command to the RHS of the prompt it places it
on the LHS of the prompt where it is useless.

This is caused by function
telnet-check-software-type-initialize which sets
comint-prompt-regexp inappropriately to "^[^*>\n]*[*>] *"
when it sees "its" in the remote host output.

2. Spurious prompts for a password if "passw" happens to
occur in the remote host output.

(This bug report unfortunately got no response at the time.)

I'm unable to reproduce this in Emacs 28.

This bug is still present on the current trunk.  To reproduce

emacs -Q
M-x rsh RET hostname RET
touch /tmp/passw
ls /tmp/

Emacs will now query you for a password in the minibuffer.

And things are kinda odd all over.  If I have:

[larsi@stories ~]$

and then

[larsi@stories ~]$ cd RET

I get

[larsi@stories ~]$ [larsi@stories ~]$ 

this is the case with all commands that don't output anything.

My guess is that nobody has used the rsh command in a while?  At least
not over ssh?
