Subject: terminal problems with escape characters
Date: Tue, 10 Dec 2002 17:19:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3DF61416.197B19D4@tid.es> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 3DDB50B1.2080709@fasw.co.id

I have a RedHat 7.3 linux box. I have enabled the telnet server.

I am trying to telnet my linux box from a unix-like system where the default
terminal setting is set to ansi.

I have succesfully changed the setting for the TERM variable to 'linux' or 'vt100'
or even 'xterm' (as I have found in several news).

But I am still experiencing when I edit files with the vi program, because of the
escape characters like the ones to move the cursor dont work...That´s my main
problem.

Anyway, I have thought that maybe it was due that I was telneting to the Unix box
using  the Windows 2000 telnet, but I have tried to use other telnet programs
(like putty), but I cant figure out what I have to change in the linux box
settings (or the telnet client)...

Many thanks in advance...

Miguel
