I echoed $TERM on both boxes, and they are both cons25. I figured out, though, that I'm only seeing the color spillover issue when I run GNU Screen on the remote box (which is OpenBSD). GNU Screen is not installed on the FreeBSD box. How can I get screen's colors to work in my FreeBSD ssh

Hi Chuck, What do I make of it when the system runs flawlessly both on Win XP and FreeBSD-8.0-amd64 ? BTW, 8.2 does NOT - for reasons unfathomable to me - install /usr/sbin/apmd. I don't know how significant that is, but I have had to insert into rc.conf : apm_enable=NO
