solaris - Can't take input from a terminal -


we migrating hpux system solaris 64. when try more command without arguments in hpux waits stdin (just "cat" command), in solaris there different result:

/usr/xpg4/bin/more

can't take input terminal 

(trying /usr/bin/more show usage section:"usage: /usr/bin/more [-cdflrsuw] [-lines] [+linenumber] [+/pattern] [filename ...].")

don't know if it's terminal configuration problem, environment value or configuration trouble (or normal , can't change it).

the term environment set vt100 (try xterm without success).

is possible change behavior more command waiting stdin in solaris?

ps. forgot connect putty in ssh mode.

(converting comment answer, because (in opinion) solution.)

it's unreasonable expect system react same following platform migration. 1 of times time spent trying "make x system y system" huge waste of time. client either needs deal change, or move hp-ux platform. dealt years. if fudge solaris system, you're propagating bad habits , causing future sys admins hellish task of supporting setup.

if customers requirements , lack of ability/motivation perform updates strong, migrating new platform should never option. said before though, if modify tools on solaris box emulate hp-ux, you've created hybrid one-off environment nightmare in months/years come. hiring "solaris admin" in future mean nothing, if of commands work hp-ux. (can tell feel this?)
