Subject:	user PATH spec missing via rlogin.

I've just installed inetd on an NT system and most things seem to be 
working fine.

In the rlogin session USER environment variables (from control panel -> 
system -> environment) seem to come through OK, but in the case of PATH 
where it is also defined in the SYSTEM environment. I only get the 
SYSTEM path. Is this expected?

Natively on the host machine my path contains system and user details
[~]$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32:/cygdrive/c/WINNT:/cygdrive/c/NETMANAG.32:/cygdrive/c/orawin/bin:/usr/bin:/cygdrive/d/vlib/std:/cygdrive/d/WVOFFICE:/cygdrive/c/AVANTI/98.4/PC:/cygdrive/c/util:/cygdrive/c/ctexe:/cygdrive/c/ctlib:/cygdrive/c/ezc:/cygdrive/c/Modeltech_5.6/win32:/cygdrive/c/Program 
Files/Symphony EDA/VHDL Simili 2.2/tcl/bin:/cygdrive/c/Program 
Files/MPLAB:/cygdrive/d/emacs-21.2/bin:/usr/bin

Via remote rlogin it only contains the system portion
 >echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32:/cygdrive/c/WINNT:/cygdrive/c/NETMANAG.32:/cygdrive/c/orawin/bin:/usr/bin

Is this expected behaviour?


As an aside, I DO have USER mount points working when remotely logged 
in. This seems contrary to what I'd have expected from 
inetutils-1.3.2.README which states:
  - No user mount point is valid anymore! You have to install all
    your mount points in the system mount table. This doesn't
    change after you have logged in to a normal user account eg.
    via telnet/rlogin. It's possible that we can use the user
    mounts as soon as somebody contributes a patch to login and
    ftp that allows loading a user hive into the registry after
    authentication.

Has someone already fixed login? I don't see any references to that in 
login releases.

Over my remote rlogin I see:

[~]$ mount
D:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\lib\X11\fonts on /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts type user 
(binmode)
D:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type user (binmode)
D:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode)
D:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type user (binmode)
D:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode)
d:\projects on /projects type user (textmode)
D:\cygwin on / type user (binmode)
D:\cygwin on / type system (binmode)
d:\tmp on /mnt/projects type user (textmode)
c: on /cygdrive/c type user (binmode,noumount)
d: on /cygdrive/d type user (binmode,noumount)
e: on /cygdrive/e type user (binmode,noumount)

Note that /projects is ONLY a user mount yet I can get full remote 
access via rlogin or ftp.
