Well, the main problem is it's not real AIX. It's an "AIX like" environment called Portable Application Solutions Environment (PASE). >From the native shell prompt, xterm is not even allowed. I've tried to ssh in, but that didn't work. I did find somewhere that told me that VNC should work, but I had no luck. I was able to get an xterm window by typing xterm in VNC, but Git still complained.
I guess the bottom line is that it's the environment I'm trying to get it to work in not Git :-) It's just one of the joys of working on platform that is completely different from all the others. I appreciate the comments though. -- James R.
