This sounds like you don't have the proper terminal type set in PuTTY or your shell environment. Can you check the terminal type that PuTTY advertises to the ssh connection, and compare it with the output of the following command, while connected to FreeBSD? echo $TERM I have used PuTTY to connect to FreeBSD machines, or Linux machines, or Solaris machines, with an advertised terminal type of "xterm". The startup scripts of my shell on those machines never make any change to the TERM environment variable. It all "just works(TM)". Giorgos.
