Installed cygwin to get access to SSH. However, WinCVS still chokes. While
poking around I discovered that my Windows 2000 enviroment variables had
been really messed up. Further, I can't seem to track down a way to return
them to what they should be.

Here is a taste found by typing env at a dos command prompt:

COMSPEC=C:\WINNT\system32\cmd.exe
CYGWIN=binmode
PATH=/cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32:/cygdrive/c/WINNT:/cygdrive/c/WINNT/System3
m:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/cygwin/bin
SYSTEMDRIVE=C:
SYSTEMROOT=C:\WINNT
TEMP=/cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/augustz/LOCALS~1/Temp
TMP=/cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/augustz/LOCALS~1/Temp
TERM=cygwin

My HOME env is also messed up. Any idea about what is going on? Any idea on
how to revert this to standard behaviour? I've tried rebooting to no avail.

Thanks for your help...

August
