As said, this becomes slow over the combination of high-latency links 
like ISDN (the more even with 9600 serial) with lots-a-hops (see below)

  ssh -t [EMAIL PROTECTED] "ssh -t [EMAIL PROTECTED] 'ssh -t [EMAIL PROTECTED]'"

*nod* locale:
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC=POSIX
LC_TIME=POSIX
LC_COLLATE=POSIX
LC_MONETARY=POSIX
LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8
LC_PAPER=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
