This is what happens: Telnet from Linux box to FreeBSD box. 1) Scrolling is smooth and in color. Telnet from FreeBSD box to same Linux box. 2) Scrolling is "jumpy" and in B+W. Is the Linux terminal implementation vastly superior to FreeBSD or do I have a misconfig? I'm using syscons with colorls on the BSD machine and the default console on the Linux machine. However, for compatibility the TERM is set to scoansi when telnetting. Is there a way to "smooth out" the terminal behaviour when the BSD box "places the call?" Thanks, Craig
