I'm dialing in over modem, and specify ATHENA-VAX at the CPT; I get routed
to a server fine, but the last few days I notice that I'm not being asked
for my TERM type anymore, and instead its being set automatically to "su".
This has happened on a few seperate instances, this particular server being
E40-008-9, the CPT router being canneloni.
Is this a problem with the server setup or is it local to me? I know of one
other person who has the same problem over dialup (frequently its intially
discovered when one tries to run "help" or "emacs" over dialup; the former
doesn't scroll lines properly and the latter gives a message saying the
terminal type "su" isn't powerful enough).
Thanks.
