GSP TELNET Settings

[Smucker]

Recently went to an HP Class (System Admin II) and we used the GSP lan telnet to do everything. After returning I set up my GSP and am able to telnet but I cannot do VI ...the screen looks funky. Any suggestions on setting that may correct this...

Hi,

This is due to your TERM setting. Run the following

echo $TERM

then check the terminal emulation you're using on the terminal or PC running emulation.
Let's say that the command returns vt100 & the terminal is set for hp - then run

export TERM=hp
echo $TERM

When they match you should be AOK from that point on.

HTH,
Jeff

I discovered this too. I went and changed the default setting on the GSP to be VT100. All is working fine ...thanks

better set your TERM to vt100

After changing the GSP to VT100 the terminal now comes in as a VT100 ...no ned to change it
