You might give that a shot. Or, use "stty" to tell the Linux : box what to do with those control sequences. That assuming linux has : stty, I'd guess it probably does, i've not used it in a while. Why so complicated? Try to get the screen package from the ports (or packages) section... It will emulate a fairly well VT100 for your purposes. Start "screen" at your console. Simply start your telnet session afterwards in such a "screen". Don't forget to set TERM (environment var) to "vt100" before your telnet but AFTER invocation of screen.
