Thanks Pavel.

I chose the second option and it worked wonderfully. For others using
iTerm on OSX, create a terminal profile that uses utf-8 encoding instead
of the default. Then create a bookmark for the EL5 system you want to
connect to using 'ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]' as the command and
tell it to use the new terminal profile you created. this is how I did
it and it's working perfectly for me.
