Can we set Linux default XTERM to VT100

i tried to set in the .bashrc, .bash_profile,.profile export $TERM=VT100

but when trying to ssh into device echo $TERM returns xterm-color

how we can set default TERM=vt100

Solution

  • You can use SetEnv in your SSH config (probably ~/.ssh/config):

    Host server_ip_address
    SetEnv TERM=VT100
