Re: "ssh-host-config -y" w/CYGWIN set to ntsec..; ssh works but CYGWIN *not* set

I could be wrong here but I thought that setting of $CYGWIN for the
service affects only the environment of the actual service, not for the
general cygwin environment.  If you want the CYGWIN environment variable
set to a certain value globally, just set it in the system properties
dialog.

I have CYGWIN set in my sshd service and globally to "server", but when I ssh to my machine, CYGWIN is empty:

% echo $CYGWIN
server
% ssh localhost
Last login: Wed May  4 20:20:04 2005 from localhost
% echo $CYGWIN

This is with the 2005-05-20 snapshot.
