On my own machine, things work perfectly.

As soon as I ssh to another machine, I get errors that confuse me
greatly (on that machine)

Using vim or vi, joe, emacs:

Terminal entry not found in terminfo
'Eterm' not known. Available builtin terminals are:
    builtin_ansi
    builtin_xterm
    builtin_iris-ansi
    builtin_dumb
defaulting to 'ansi'

If I locally use an xterm window to ssh to the target machine, I don't
get these errors.

1.)Why does my local terminal impact what happens on the remote machine?
2.)What do I do about it ?
