Using TeraTerm SSH, "export TERM=xterm" seemed to make the PF keys work,
although I'm not sure that I care for the extra colors.
PuTTY seemed to set TERM=xterm when it started, but I can't figure out how
to make TeraTerm do the same.

You will have to change the rc.config, hosts and route.conf. You have a set
of commands that helps you do changes to this files and they are:
sed, tail, head . You can use the sed command to change and the tail and
head to add or delete lines form your files. ex.:
cat rc.config | sed -e 's/192.168.
This reminds me of that famous Pogo-ism:

Hi David

I think we probably would go for a PDF edition, as well as or instead of a

Yes, you have card readers. Look at device address "00C" on almost any VM
guest. It is normally a card reader. How else would you read the printouts
from the VM spool if not with a card reader?
