accessing debian from an hpterm



I have an HP-UX workstation where I work; if I connect to my Debian box
using an hpterm window, the terminal emulation is appalling. 

Arrow keys don't work for command line history (but it looks like hpterm isn't
actually sending anything to the telnet session; and I don't use the arrow
keys normally in an hpterm because the only decent shell on our system
is ksh with vi editing :-)

Also, ls thinks it can do colour, which doesn't work. Any program which
sets bold ends up setting reverse video instead.

I copied the hp-ux (10.20) terminfo definition across but it didn't help.
Works okay if I use an xterm on HP-UX, but I prefer hpterms. Anyone?
