It's possible that your remote system has TERM set to vt100 instead of
xterm, and so erase is set to '^H' rather than '^?'. You can confirm (or
otherwise) this by running 'stty -a'. You might want to dig deeper to
find out why, but the workaround is to type (or add to your .bashrc)

export TERM=xterm
