Both answers have been wrong. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Interesting point. Unfortunately, since the server isn't going to echo back the chars, DON'T ECHO has the same effect. The difference between DON'T/WILL has effect if you assume, that the server echo's back each char it receives. Then client in WILL situation will echo, client in DON'T won't echo. But since the server won't echo anyways, there's no difference. You could have pointed that out without telling us we are wrong, which isn't true. Alex -- I need a new ~/.sig.
