Hi,                                                                             
                        
                                                                                
                        
I think that I have narrowed this down enough to say that this is a             
                        
cygwin issue. Hopefully, I can get some advice on this list. If I run           
                        
these commands in a dos window that I started nativly on the machine,

$ ls

$                                                                               
                        
                                                                                
                        
Then everything works fine. Including vim. However, if I login via ssh and      
                        
run this command,

The sh doesn't properly. echo is turned on, tab completion doesn't work,        
                        
the arrows literally move you around the terminal...                            
                        
Also, ls doesn't know how to display the files properly. If I start vim         
                        
I get                                                                           
                        
                                                                                
                        
$ vim                                                                           
                        
vim                                                                             
                        
Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal                                       
                        
Vim: Warning: Input is not from a terminal                                      
                        
                                                                                
                        
Does anyone know why this would be? I've talked extensivly with the             
                        
mingw-users list, and they aren't sure why. They recommended asking             
                        
here if cygwin does something odd in the background.                            
                        
                                                                                
                        
Thanks,
