Hi

I'd say I'm not happy with the terminal (termcap/telnetd e.d.) under
FreeBSD... When telnetting from a FreeBSD host to another host I often get
problems... (e.g. on an digital unix I get some l3's and enters instead of
just enters, and sometimes the char's start at the wrong place (e.g. with
elm the prompt is in the word right in front of the prompt)) And when
telnetting TO a FreeBSD host I don't get problems that often, but
especially when telnetting from a DOS machine (with NCSA telnet) I get
double enters... Can't something be done on that problem!? It's really
driving me crazy when working on one of those machine's and other people
who have to work that way don't like it either...

I hope on some comments that can make this little part of FreeBSD a little
better... (altough I'm happy with it - and I don't want to upgrade my
whole system)...

Paul
