This is also the cntl G char.

Be aware that some shells and terminal types do not support this, but most do.

Hi all,

I tried all your suggested ways.
It is not working.
I am using CRT software for login.
Without CRT also, I tried in telnet.
What should be the reason ?

Thanks

What 'terminal' hardware and software do you use?

For example I use an hpterm(1) window in a Reflection X CDE session. But normally the sound of my PC is switched off, so I do not hear *any* sound, i.e. also not the Ctrl+G etc. 'beep.
