Shell issues in converting from HP UX 11 to RHEL 5

wernox · 02-12-2010, 12:22 PM

We've converted several older unix servers from HP UX to VM's running RHEL 5. The database applications and everything else run great, however we have a group of programmers who need to be able to use character based, wyse60 sessions using tiny term.

I'm having trouble making the cool elements in bash work in this emulator, and even more trouble simply replicating what was available in the /sbin/sh used in HP UX?

Does anyone have any advice for dealing with this kind of transition?
