summary: return key is missing

Hi,

Thanks for the responses from the following people:

"JULIAN, JOHN C (AIT)"
Jon Andrews
"Hirchert, Dale L"
Andrew Hall
Grzegorz Bakalarski
Joshua Clark
Dan Astoorian
John Benjamins
<Karl.Rossing at federated.ca>
"Marble, Jeff R"
Charles Morris
Michael Horton

I used the solution devrived from Charles Morris
suggestion. I openned another terminal from another
unix box and type

%mv /.profile /tmp

then I copy the whole line including the "enter". Then
paste the whole line to the console of the messed up
server. It works.

btw, I tried ctrl-M, ctrl-J. No luck and I don't have
any other user accounts on this server.

Cheers,

zhu

Subject: return key is missing

Hello,

someone messed up the root profile and the enter
key(return key) on the keyboard was mapped to
backspace.

I can't issue any commands at this time since there is
no "enter" any more. Except booting from cdrom, is
there other way?

I have console connections and system accepts telnet
but not rsh.

thanks in advance,

zhu
