check your terminal settings, not a 5.0 issue

If you use telnet, you have some local echo setting checked. Somewhere, you are letting it echo locally, even though the server is echoing it.

ok thanks =) any ideas where i can find said echo?

What program are you using?

[Kgaul]

Yeah, the settings are in the Terminal menu, under Preferences. Uncheck Local Echo.

ok Sorry to beat this dead horse but...

I have searched the microsoft help for the Terminal menue for XP, i can't seem to locate it. been all over network connections and help for telnet commands. If anyone knows where to locate it please let me know.

I should just take some networking classes or something.
