I'm not sure what you mean. I'm new at logging into shell accounts through a 'telnet'
session. I'm on a Window$ 2000 box, using 'telnet' to log into 'sdf.lonestar.org'. The
first thing that appears at login is the following:
NetBSD/alpha (sdf) (ttypu)
Does that help?

What UNIX environment? What terminal emulator? I know that Solaris
includes a handy utility called dos2unix that will help pull out
annoying extra characters from DOS created text files. Perhaps this
utility is found in other UNIXy OSs as well.
