What's your TERM environment variable set to?  If it's set to xterm-debian
or something like that, then the Solaris box might not know what that
means.  You can either install the xterm-debian TERM definition on all your
Solaris boxes, or just set your TERM variable to xterm when you log in.

Of course, the problem may be something completely different.  I don't use
Solaris much, so I'm just guessing.
