I recently left managment and came back to AIX administration. So I am a bit rusty to say the least. The issue I am having is with the term settings when I either simply telnet to my AIX unit or even when I use an emulator like puTTY or a VAR provided one. Once I am logged into AIX I get a lot of garbage characters throughout the screen. I've tried setting TERM = VT100, TERM=IBM3151, TERM=DG4250. None of them work right. It seems I remember there is a little command line fix that you can also incorporate into your .profile, that fixes this, but for the life of me I can't remember it or find it anywhere. Any assistance would be really appreciated!!!
