clicking backspace in centos3 makes ^?

[peter at farrows.org (Peter Farrow)]

Ps:

If

TERM=vt100; export TERM

works, you can make in permanent by adding it to /etc/profile

do a
 source profile

to implement it straight away...if you add it to /etc/profile

Note: this will make it global for all subsequent users...
