My setup is now as follows: My MSYS icon in the taskbar starts a slightly modified msys.bat (see below). From the resulting rxvt I start ssh-add manually, and also all subsequent shell are started by 'rxvt &' so they get the correct ssh environment like that. I used .Xdefaults (see below) to give the subsequent rxvts the same settings that I use in msys.bat. It seems that the initial rxvt does not honour the settings in .Xdefaults, that's why you need to specify them in msys.bat explicitly. So here's my files (only the relevant snippets of course): msys.bat ---------- start %WD%ssh-agent %WD%rxvt ............ (the "%WD%ssh-agent" part is the modification) .Xdefaults ----------- rxvt.geometry:120x50 rxvt.background:black rxvt.foreground:LightYellow rxvt.font:Courier-12 rxvt.termName:xterm rxvt.command:/bin/sh rxvt.login_shell:True rxvt.saveLines:2500 rxvt.scrollBar_right:True Best regards, Heiko ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

The reason for this is probably because you do not have HOME defined before rxvt is first invoked. You must define the HOME variable either in the Windows environment or in the msys.bat file. rxvt looks for .Xdefaults in the HOME directory, so HOME must be defined first before rxvt is executed. HOME is defined in /etc/profile, but that gets executed after the initial rxvt, which is too late to execute the .Xdefaults file. Rich Simoes
