That depends on whether you're using a telnet port or binary port.

Which one is listed in the config file as the one you're logging in on?

Given the above two paragraphs my biggest suspicion is that you're trying
to handle this on a telnet connection as opposed to a binary connection.
Since DGD does its own handling of the telnet protocol it's probably
intercepting what you're trying to see.
