Sounds like bad terminal emulation. I find that NCSA (and the related Clarkson CUTCP) telnet have pretty poor terminal emulation. I run CUTCP under DOS here occasionally, to a Debian 2 box. I haven't noticed what you said but I use vi. I can't suggest a better DOS telnet though. I'm used to the Lan Workplace (Novell) one too but it's nothing to write home about. On Windows I use CRT and find it to be most excellent. Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3TYD [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Debian packages at ftp://ftp.rising.com.au/pub/hamish.
