Can that be changed? Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk "cons25" is generally defaulted as the terminal mode when I log on via console and I would like to have that changed to something in the VT* series such as VT100, VT102, and so forth. Is there any way to do this as I use telnet a lot and it's difficult to do things if terminal type isn't supported on other remote sites. I've tried to "fool" the other system, telling them I was using VT100 (using the setenv TERM vt100 command) but that didn't work... Jon
