Patrick,
Probably you have to change the HOME environment variable.
like
HOME=/cygdrive/c/users/shoreuser
The space character in HOME might cause the problem.

)
) My home shows:
)
) ----
) $ env | grep HOME
) HOMEPATH=\
) HOME=/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/shoreuser
) HOMEDRIVE=H:
) HOMESHARE=\\bigsur\PSullivan$

) and I have .bashrc file as:
) ----
) psullivan AT psullivan-gx280 ~
) $ pwd
) /cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/shoreuser
) $ cat .bashrc
) alias ll='ls -l'

) ) Hi Frodak and All,
) )
) ) I created the ~/.bash_profile file (it wasn't even there before!), and
) ) tried sourcing ~/.bashrc from it. It still doesn't work. I don't

) ) these files are ever executed during my cygwin session. I don't know

) ) ~/.bashrc is only sourced by bash on non-login interactive shells
) ) ~/.bash_profile is only source by bash on login interactive shells
) )
) ) If you have your aliases in ~/.bashrc you need to add the following
) line
) ) to
) ) ~/.bash_profile
) ) Source ~/.bashrc
) )
) ) Further examples can be taken from the files located in /etc/skel.
) )
) ) Also look at the man bash page under INVOCATION.
