BTW, FWIW, when I 'remotely login', now, and try to use win-env vars:
/Users/law.Bliss/bin/dumphive: line 11: USERPROFILE: unbound variable more than one of my scripts and other programs fail due to USERPROFILE being null. Is it possible to preserve that? maybe a file in /etc/ could specify which variables to preserve (or set) on login. I often launch windows programs from my bash shell -- especially things like explorer, or windows gvim... (generally I use 'bash' as my win-shell. Last I tried, it worked in comspec as well, but I decided to keep that pointing at cmd since if bash is broken, I might have problems launching a shell to fix it.
