That's because RedHat defaults to having "vi" map to "vim-minimal".  Try
using "vim" insead of "vi".

My .vimrc includes:

   if &term =~ "xterm"
      if has("terminfo")
         "set t_Co=16
         set t_Co=2
         set t_AB=[%?%p1%{8}%<%t%p1%{40}%+%e%p1%{92}%+%;%dm
         set t_AF=[%?%p1%{8}%<%t%p1%{30}%+%e%p1%{82}%+%;%dm
      else
         "set t_Co=16
         set t_Co=2
         set t_Sf=[3%dm
         set t_Sb=[4%dm
      endif
   endif

   set background=dark
   if &t_Co > 1
      syntax on
   endif
   highlight PreProc ctermfg=5 cterm=bold    "cyan
   highlight Comment ctermfg=1               "red
   highlight String ctermfg=2                "green
   highlight Normal guibg=Black guifg=White
