Synopsis: telnet gives ANSI80X30; rlogin gives (correct) cons30 State-Changed-From-To: open-closed State-Changed-By: fenner State-Changed-When: Fri Mar 1 12:08:06 PST 1996 State-Changed-Why: The option negotiation SENT WILL TERMINAL TYPE RCVD DO TERMINAL TYPE RCVD IAC SB TERMINAL-TYPE SEND SENT IAC SB TERMINAL-TYPE IS "CONS25" RCVD IAC SB TERMINAL-TYPE SEND SENT IAC SB TERMINAL-TYPE IS "ANSIS" RCVD IAC SB TERMINAL-TYPE SEND SENT IAC SB TERMINAL-TYPE IS "ANSI80X25" RCVD IAC SB TERMINAL-TYPE SEND SENT IAC SB TERMINAL-TYPE IS "ANSI80X25" is correct RFC-1091 behavior on the part of the telnet client. The telnet server is apparently either not RFC-1091 compliant or chooses not to pick the first-reported terminal type. The easiest way to work around this is to remove all aliases in your /usr/share/misc/termcap file; change it from cons25|ansis|ansi80x25:\ to cons25:\ and if you still want to have the ansis and ansi80x25 aliases, add entries like ansis:tc=cons25: ansi80x25:tc=cons25:
