(I'd prefer ssh, but I'd settle for telnet.) I've tried > the following line: > TERM=vt100; export TERM on machine your trying to connect to this host do: setenv TERM vt100 or export TERM=vt100 eitherone should work depending on your settings. and never ever use telnet. kill the telnetd and bury it. tlenet is never safe and can be only use don devices than can only be logged with telnet and if you do do it from same network so u cant be sniffed.
