I SSH to it from my Mac and the terminal colors look just how I want them to. When I SSH to this server from work, all the terminal text is gray. I can still get highlighting in vi but the command line highlighting is gone. Does anybody know what causes this and how I can fix it? Thanks, Jason

Make sure you have it set correctly from your work machine. I assume you are probably using something like puTTY? ...corey
