How were you logging in? A real serial port login? Or just a console login using the pty driver? In /etc/inittab for the lines with getty on the serial port you would need to add -U to get this capability. T0:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -U -L ttyS0 9600 vt100 I would think you could get the same behavior on the linux console too. I haven't tried it recently. Note: I seem to recall that there is a bug in recent years near this in the getty code or some such that causes it to fail to set iuclc but my brain does not recall it at this moment. Bob
