RE: [cobalt-users] Telnet Session VI editor Cursor movement problems

["Brian R. Poppenwimer" <popper@xxxxxxxxxx>]

How about just using the h j k l keys to move around, that's the way I
learned to use vi =)

You are using straight telnet? (We don't need to go into the turn off
Telnet and switch ssh bit do we?)

And you tried the set term = vt100, been a while since I really used
unix that much so forgive me if I go off in a odd direction, how about
doing a tset.  Just odd it doesn't work on one server.
Later,
