RE: Anyone know about linear power supplies, single transistor.

Sounds to me like the TO3 pass transistor has a collector to emitter short, this sending the unregulated voltage out directly. 17 volts is about right for the unregulated voltage.
There may be other circuit damage as well so all transistors and diodes should be checked.
