As showed in the title. If I start a shell from cygwin.bat, the "w" and "who" command showed nothing while the shell from ssh can. And I also think the tty should be pts/x, not ttyx.
Set "CYGWIN=tty" in your Windows environment if you want/need 'bash' to register as a terminal when invoked from any 'cmd.exe' (like 'cygwin.bat' does). See: <http://cygwin.com/1.7/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html> Note that other terminals (mintty, xterm, rxvt) don't require this because they know they are terminals. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
