Thanks Paulo. Well Guy, I don't know what to do with this one. It turns out that -i helps run some of the login scripts and my goofup with -c is probably enough to close this bug report. You wouldn't happen to know how to get bash to read all of it's appropriate login scripts and then executing a command would you (this is for over an ssh connection)?
