Is this happening after you've already logged in? Assuming this is
linux, the following added to your .bash_profile will probably correct
it:
if tty --quiet; then
stty erase '^H'
fi
If it's happening while you're attempting to log in, and you're
telnetting in, and this is a linux server, your only option is to press
the key sequence that login will interpret as a back space. It's
<ctrl><backspace> for me when using VT220 or ADDS A2 emulation through
Accuterm. It may be <ctrl><H> or something else depending on your
emulation. This is due to the limitations of the linux login program,
and AFAIK there is no way around it other than to authenticate with a
service that doesn't call login, like SSH.
