I've tried bind -p | grep history and it did not work:
==========================================
$ sudo bind -p | grep history
Password:
sudo: bind: command not found
==========================================

I also tried changing the terminal once I logged in to the remote machine, but 
I am getting the same error:
==========================================
$ export TERM=vt100
$ ^[[B^[[B
==========================================

What else could I try?
