I can feel a FAQ entry comin' on.
We need a step by step for us booginners, all in one place.
1) disable vty clearing
(My google yesterday failed to easily find this, so I gave up, and I
think someone posted it recently too :/
2) increase scroll-back buffer
3) disable scrolling (I think Andrei said this is possible),
but only if it does wrap-around to the top of the screen
4) what key/mouse sequences to use to scroll back
5) commands to view the log after loggin in
6) more?
