cons25 and xterm

[zera holladay]

Hello, when I ssh to my school Unix account
(unfortunately solaris) from my local host's command
line and when I attempt to clear the screen, I get an
error message from the remote host: `cons25`: unknown
terminal type.  The remote host is $TERM=xterm.  My
local machine is FreeBSD's default $TERM=cons25.  

My question is: how can I switch my local terminal
type so that it works correctly with the remote
machine?  I don't want to install X, but if that is
the only option then I'll reconsider.

Thank you,

-zh
