Hi
	I am also having problems with vi running on a remote machine.
In my case I do a remote login from our SPARCS running X11R4pl18 to an
HP9000/300 series running HP's version of X11+Motif.
	If I do a telnet or an rlogin, when I call vi, the screen will
scroll to high, it will not show the top of the file. 
	If I run the resize program on the HP, it will print to the 
terminal the COLUMNS and LINES values. I then execute these commands and
everything works ok. 
	Can somebody tell my where is the problem?? Termcap/Terminfo ??


	Thanks.
