I'm not sure what you're getting at but rxvt.exe is not my problem; I
just mention this as a curiousity since _when_ sshd was working, so
was rxvt.  as for my bash and xterms under xfree 4.2.0, they both work
fine with the default PS1 setting.  I have the exact same config at
work where everything is running smoothly.

and yes, I am running bash by default, but sshd fails to initialize
tcsh in the same manner.

as you probably have guessed: I am not an advanced user of Cygwin,
though I enjoy it very much as a novice user.  if I posted a 'RTFM'
sort of thing, all I can say is that I did try to find information
concerning this on google groups search.
