I know but it seems like when I compiled screen on the SUN, it defaults to vt100 since other systems won't know what a SC termcap is. That is just a minor inconvenience. The real problem is somehow screen isn't functioning properly with showing the status of logins. I don't know how to explain it but I'll describe it to you... When you run screen, it works correctly by replacing your pty/vty login with the screen pty info for both finger and the w information. The problem is when you create screen sessions like 5 for example, it would only show the 5th one in your login info from finger when it's supposed to show all 5 of them. Then like if you do a mesg n on the 5th one and all the others have mesg y, finger will only show the 5th session with messages off and when people try to talk to you, it says that you are refusing messages. Next thing is if you like exit from the 5th session, your finger info will show you last login info but doesn't know you are still on for the first 4 sessions and when someone tries to talk to you or something, it just says you are not logged in. Any ideas on how to fix this since this isn't how screen is supposed to be working.
