If you mean logging in with the system's local console and local CRT, that is another matter, and I will dererr to older and wiser heads on the list, as I have not a clue in that case. My server is on the other side of town, and I never had to consider it before. For what it's worth, I use PuTTY, a free ssh client. George Theodo wrote: > Hello to everybody. I am new to FreeBSD which I am using for a couple of weeks. I would like to ask this: when we log in the text mode ( not a terminal in graphic environment ) , the picture we get is black background and white characters. Is it possible to change the color of the characters to something different than white? ( I am using 5.1 Release and csh). > Thank you. > > George > > > --------------------------------- > Do you Yahoo!? > The New Yahoo!
