See what the "CYGWIN" environment variable is set to in both cases. If the 'ssh' session has 'tty', you'll want to remove that. It's probably in the server's startup environment. If having 'tty' set is the problem, you should be able to reproduce it by running the same script from 'rxvt'. Otherwise, see for a description of the diagnostic information you should send to the list in any follow-up. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
