Sam,

Are you using putty from a microsoft desktop or a linux desktop?  If you
are using a linux desktop try using konsole or terminal for the
connection and see if you get the same symptoms.

We use putty for all of our microsoft connections and konsole for all of
our linux connections and I have never noticed the problem you are
describing.

Hi again,

I've got a nagging irritant with either putty or the man pages, or perhaps my setup. If I use putty to log into my server and request any man page, it returns the page, but really important stuff like keywords are blank. Is this perhaps caused by the wrong terminal setting in putty or is there something with Centos man pages that cause this to happen?

Thanks again,

Sam

This machine has XP on it, but I can use the other Centos machine if it's up and running which is not all the time. The man pages display correctly when viewing from the other machine using just a normal terminal window. It's almost like putty can't display the bolded characters, or tries to display them maybe in the same color as the background. I'll check that on putty to make sure I don't intentionally shoot my foot off!
