So, if you're ssh'd into a cygwin box, things like 'net start' don't 
display anything, and if you use cygwin's perl to do a system call, it 
still doesn't. Use Activestate while ssh'd in and it works as it should.

Yet while on the console, all works as it should. Anyone have a clue why 
this might be behaving like this?
