Windows 10: terminal emulation when ssh'ing to Windows 10 from ubuntu.

I turned on ssh server on a windows10 desktop. I ssh into the windows 10 from an ubuntu laptop. I can use cmd.exe, powershell, and bash (WSL),

but I can't use any terminal applications... If I go into bash, and use the man or more commands, I get the first screen and then all subsequent output goes to a single line at the bottom of the terminal window. I have vim.exe installed, and it works fine when I on the windows10 desktop, but when ssh'd in from a remote ubuntu, the screen is always garbled.


If I edit in vim, the screen goes completely blank. I then do <Ctrl>L to refresh, and I get it back, but also the cursor never shows where it actually is.

so in short, for any tty oriented operation it is unusable. Any ideas where to look into this?

Clear terminal for ssh?

Is there any way co clear the ssh-ing user´s terminal when ¨issue(.net)¨ shows up? Iḿ trying to make my little usage disclaimer a bit more... Noticable. Running linux Mint 17 on a desktop/server tower.

Oh, and where is the ¨motd¨ in Mint stored anyway?

 

Terminal Emulator

Is there a terminal emulation program within Win10? If not, any suggestions? I'm a radio operator and need it to program/access a connected radio modem. Thanks.

 

Clear terminal for ssh?

Yeah i meant users SSH-ing in. I have Mint because i also use it as a desktop regularly.

Did that, and it seems to work. How does one add colored text to issue.net and motd? I tried the ANSI thing, but in all my terminal emulators it either shows the actual code on screen or makes garbled junk. Sorry if i'm missing stupid things, but i'm a complete noob to that.
