I'm not sure what you mean about the RH systems -- I used to run RH and it would normally show the CWD. What I had done was make some launchers (shell scripts work as well) for each of the hosts I would connect to and use the command line to set the title. (I think the opiton is -t) I think there is some (shell) command that can be used as well (from the remote side) because I've seen the title change on me before (usually to a non-useful title like "~"). Sorry, I don't know what the command is. -D PS. My computer is dead right now so I can't try anything with Debian to verify my suggestion.
