Thanks for all the help.
I tryied the stty and it broke my backspace key locally.
So, I try using xterm instead of rxvt and found that the problem
was rxvt!
I'm using xterm for now, will check if there is an update for rxvt

About using ssh.com:
I start using it a few years ago when openssh was having securitty issues.
I think now is time to switch back to openssh again ;-)

Thanks
Oliver

Hi,
I have RH7.3 and I'm using rxvt as my X11 terminal.
I connect via ssh(ssh.com client) to a RH9( that use openssh server)



Why are you using the ssh.com client when the openssh client comes with RHL 7.3 and is fully open source and compatible with RH 9's openssh server? I would try that first.


The problem I found is that when I'm inside the vi editor and press
the BackSpace Key, I see this caracter: ^H
In order to delete inside vi, I have to use Ctrl+H

Is there a way to fix this?



You might be able to with the 'stty' command. See the man page -- I've always found this very confusing however. I think what you're trying to do is map ^H to the 'kill' command or some such.

Try:

stty erase ^H
