[Solved] Terminal tab name

silviu · 2013-04-28 10:04:37

For some reason when I'm connecting to debian machines my tab isn't updated anymore. It is possible to be related to the PS variable on the remote server, but it is also happening in case of a clean installation.

Thanks

The problem was related to the $PROMPT_COMMAND variable. The following case needs to be uncommented in /etc/bash.bashrc

case "$TERM" in
xterm*|rxvt*)
    PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;${USER}@${HOSTNAME}: ${PWD}\007"'
    ;;
*)
    ;;
esac
