Hello all,

I use cygwin on my NT box and regularly try to telnet to Sun machines running Solaris. 
 I have not gotten vi to format or edit files correctly regardles of what I set TERM 
to.  I've tried vt100, vt200, xterm, and ansi.  None seem to work.  Lately I've been 
trying to graft termcap entries from other machines.  I've tried entries from an 
OpenBSD machine and a Linux machine, but Solaris's version of captoinfo never seems to 
be able to grok those entries reporting, "Termcap entry too long" or "Obsolete code 
removed" etc.  The resulting terminfo entries after using tic on the output seems to 
produce better results, but they invariably have problems.  Has anyone come up with a 
proper and complete termcap entry for a cygwin terminal that works on Solaris?  I'm no 
terminal wizard and wouldn't know how to write one myself to save my life.  Can anyone 
help me?

Thanks,
Steve
