GOAL:
How to do a terminal connection from OS X to a Linux server
GOAL:
How to configure a linux server to accept OS X default terminal connections
GOAL:
mpro gives the message 'Unable to use your terminal. Check your PROTERMCAP file. (443)'
GOAL:
mpro gives the message '** Could not find terminal type xterm-color in file . (146)'
FACT(s) (Environment):
OpenEdge 9
OpenEdge 10
Linux
Mac OS X
CAUSE:
Mac OS X 10.6 default terminal was used: xterm-color instead of a supported terminal listed in the $DLC/protermcap
FIX:
For Mac OS X Snow Leopard the default terminal used is xterm-color. To add support for this terminal 2 lines need to be added in the file $DLC/protermcap:
xterm-color|CDE xterm-color type (xterm equiv):\
:tc=xterm:
It is also possible to use the command ?export TERM=vt100? before or after launching the ssh session, or to use another free terminal program like iterm (from http://iterm.sourceforge.net) under Mac OS X. To check which terminal type is in use in a terminal session use the command 'echo $TERM'
