  Problems running POV 3.5 on Debian/Solaris remotely

Hi all,

    I've been trying to get povray working on a Debian box I use as a
development machine remotely from my Windows box.  When I log into it (using
ssh) and try to run povray on one of the demo scene files, it flashes some
output on the screen giving the options I've specified but then clears the
terminal and produces no file output.  I got the same thing when using the
build of POV installed on my college's Solaris machines remotely, even
though it works fine when I'm locally connected.

    I'm using the standard 3.5 linux binaries, and assume this is something
to do with Unix terminal/console subtleties with which I am not conversant.
I've looked through the archives for this group and have seen some similar
problems mentioned with respect to rsh, but haven't found any clear
solutions.  I would really like to get this to work!

    Thanks in advance for any ideas,

        Joe
