SSH question

[de049]

strange, tried all those but still it wont stick.

Why when i do a CAT on inetd.conf i get a different content to VI inetd.conf?

If i do CAT i see no TELNET entries listed. If i do VI, i see telnet but i always loose the # i put infront of it.

thanks

Hi,

Please set your terminal.
can you post your .profile
I think due to terminal setting you are facing this problem.

Yeah, as stated above, let us know your term:

echo $TERM

and lets see your profile:
cat ~/.profile

[de049]

echo $TERM = vt220

profile = export TERM

EDITOR=vi
export EDITOR

fi # if !VUE


# Set up shell environment:

set -u # error if undefined variable.
trap "echo 'logout root'" 0 # what to do on exit.


# Set up shell variables:

MAIL=/var/mail/root
# don't export, so only login shell checks.

echo "WARNING: YOU ARE SUPERUSER !!\n"
# Inserted by MV38 installation
export MV38=/opt/mv38/MV38v11.3.1

echo vt100 >> ~/.profile

Logout and login again - see if it helps.

Hi de049,

As said by Danny did you changed vt220 to vt100
if yes then tell us still you are facing problem.

ok, yes it works now. Basically, it was a combo of the VT terminal and the fact my client software wasn't fully displaying the exact content. I adjusted the terminal rows and all is now displayed via CAT and VI identically.

Thanks guys. You've been incredible!!!

Hi Dwayne,

Dont worry i will assign the much deserved points right away.

One last thing. ever since i played around with the VT profile changes, i keep getting this at the prompt on first login:

# rofile[54]: vt100: not found.t220".

Before at first login i simply got the # prompt awaiting my input. Now i have to type CLEAR before being able to continue with my input.

Any ideas.
