Lines: 6 Message-ID: <4tjv6q$rco@news.netusa.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: 204.141.7.134 X-Newsreader: Forte Free Agent 1.0.82 Is there an easy way to have BSD query the terminal when someone telnets or dials into the system in order to see what type of terminal it is? I can see how to do it manually, just couldn't see any way to do it automagically..
