Thanks a lot René for this tip. At least after trying this out, understood that something is wrong, in my cygwin installation. If I log in (either locally and remotely) I get the bash prompt, but the .bashrc is not sourced. If I then type bash on the command line then this file gets sourced. Trying to use w from another terminal, would list the users and the ttys. Under the WHAT column I see bash in case of a simple login but if I type bash under the login I then see /usr/bin/bash l This means that when I login some other bash (other than /usr/bin/bash) is called. Thanks a lot for your help. Regards, O.O. ___________________________________ Yahoo!
