[SunHELP] keyboard behavior w/ remote host

[Lyndon Griffin]

Sounds like a termcap problem...  try setting in your .profile or equiv on
the linux box the variable TERM - most telnet-type programs will pass your
current TERM setting to the new host, and there are frequently
incompatibilities.  I would suggest something simple like TERM=xterm.
