Ah sorry for the confusion, I had modified my PS1 settings (which I  
could
set after manually sourcing .bashrc) so I just put a % for my prompt in
the email.

If I start cygwin normally my prompt looks like this:

d.t...@imb09-02635 ~
$

Also

d.t...@imb09-02635 ~
$ echo $SHELL
/bin/bash

d.t...@imb09-02635 ~
$ echo $0
-bash
Doesn't really matter. The important thing is your home directory. Set
it to /home/d.tang

Thanks for the quick reply.

So I've changed my home directory to /home/d.tang in my passwd file. I copied the .bashrc into my new home directory.
But when I restart cygwin, it still doesn't load the .bashrc. Did I do  
something wrong?
