Which terminal?  Windows cmd.com, cygwin rxvt, or cygwin xterm?  If if is
Windows, then the tty option in the CYGWIN environment variable may help:

My personal preference is to use rxvt when doing a session with just
cygwin programs, and cmd.com only when I am switching between cygwin and
Windows native programs.

That's not very descriptive.  Better would have been to follow these
directions:

and include 'cygcheck -svr' output as a text attachment.
