Thanks. I now have ensured that ~/.profile, ~./bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, /etc/profile all contain the lines:
PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:$PATH" export PATH But still when I do ssh 192.168.0.150 'echo $PATH' it returns only the windows path items. What am I missing here? Any help appreciated.

Cygwin puts its path additions in /etc/profile. The corallary for a user would be ~/.profile, ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bash_login as the INVOCATION section of the bash man page suggests.
