Have you looked at your 'stty' settings? Do
stty -a
and see what the 'erase' variable equates to.
What are you using for an SSH client? On what OS? Some clients can pass
along settings during the login procedure.

I setup a ssh chroot jail following this[1] guide. It works for my user to login, use ls and use scp which is all I really want. I do have a problem I cannot solve: when connected and navigating the filesystem, the backspace key actually moves the cursor forward and does not delete what I type.
I may have found a hint from some googling that readline will read in /etc/inputrc on login but if this is true, I am unsure what component of readline might I require to copy over from the live system into the chroot jail.
For reference, I include the tree view of the chroot jail I created below. Thank you kindly for any suggestions.
