stty erase on solaris 8 sparc
Hi All,

I put all these combination either: stty erase ^H or stty erase "^H" on /etc/profile or /home/user/.profile. But backspace erase won't work on my keyboard. I'm using putty on my remote connection with ultra 10.

On the console or direct connection with sun keyboard, it does.

Please help.

Thanks.
