Hi all,
I am using telnet (from windows or linux) to work on AIX system and my numeric keyboard zone is not working, I am
using the numbers on top of letters but would like to
know how to use the numeric zone on the right of my keyboard.
Thanks for help

Telnet needs to tell the system what kind of terminal you are using. It populates the 'TERM' variable on the remote
system. Enter: echo $TERM on the remote system to see what kind of terminal it thinks you are using. Change the $TERM variable to the correct setting, i.e. ansi, vt220, etc.
 
I know this is highly unlikely, but you may want to just verify that your NumLock is on.

Code what you mean,
and mean what you code!
But by all means post your code!
