  I have a small problem I can't find the answer to in any documentation.
In a tcp/ip network I have two machines. Machine A runs AIX 3.1.  Machine
B is running ISC SYSV 3.2. 
When I telnet from machine A to machine B, the tty settings for erase
is "^H".  When I rlogin from A to B, the tty setting for erase is "#". I can't
find out what controls these settings.  I know for serial tty's the info
is in /etc/gettydefs, but it does not seem to hold try for telnet/rlogin.
Any ideas anyone?


Please send email to address below.

Thanks in advance
