As I mentioned in another post, the "toe" command shows which TERM types you terminal supports. xterm (the app) doesn't support "linux" TERM type. The solution was to set TERM to "xterm" at both ends. Basically, run "toe" on both machines and find a common entry that they both support. -- Walter Dnes I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
