If I type:

Well, from everything I've seen, it *should* be working. The only other thing I can imagine is that you have some mapping interfering with history-recall. What happens when you start vim with no vimrc?

  vim -u NONE

Additionally, you might take a look at either the output of

 :history

or pull up the command-line window

  :help q:

to see if history is being gathered. This will at least help determine whether you (1) have history that's being saved but not recalled or if you (2) have no history being gathered.

I assume you're entering several commands as well to ensure that your history has something to pull back. If you're expecting it to be preserved across editing sessions, check your 'viminfo' setting

  :set viminfo?

to make sure you have the entries for the various histories:

  :help 'viminfo'

(namely the ":" and "/" in particular)

-tim
