this actually isn't a keyboard problem, it's the telnet session settings. If you notice the escape sequence is also: ^[ I don't remember the del key, but the backspace key does output ^H instead. But if you hit ctrl-H on your keyboard, it will backspace for you this is usually on a lot of FreeBSD machines (at least where i have seen it).
It could be set with stty and define the erase character. The erase character "now" active could be char(127). Different on some machines / terminals. you will have to read and try the man page ;-( man stty Juergen

Hello everyone (again),
Here's some more keyboard problems, but not of the 'bugs' variety, more a misconfiguration.
I often telnet or ssh in to a Unix server running SunOS (not sure what version). When I'm using telnet and drop back to command mode (using the escape sequence), any time I use the backspace key I get ^H instead, which I presume is the control code to escape. When I'm logged into the server the backspace key works fine. Except when I use the 'talk' program (with either ssh or telnet), in which case the backspace key again produces ^H.
I also experience this behaviour when in command mode for smbmount and ftp.
I take it this is a terminal configuration error? Hopefully not terminal for me ;-) (Sorry, bad joke).
What do I have to change to get this working as expected? The delete key doesn't work either, by the way, it gives ^[[3~ . I would like to get this working in most of these situations if possible.
Can anyone help? Thanks in advance, Chris -- __ _ -o)/ / (_)__ __ ____ __ Chris Reeves /\\ /__/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / ICQ# 22219005 _\_v __/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\
