Yet another reason to move to ssh. Using puTTY on a windows box, brings up an xterm like window, and it's like being right in front of your linux box. With windows telnet program, I could never get any of the console editors to work for me. Many of the keys would not work. fred -- ************************ Using Linux ************************
