emacs: standard input is not a tty

Greetings,
I've got cygwin-b20.1 (full.exe) and nt-emacs 20.3.3.1 (aka 20.4
pretest) running on NT SP4.
How can I get "emacs -nw" to work in a bash (cygnus.bat) shell? It
works fine in the NT Command Prompt (cmd.exe). In bash, emacs
complains that "standard input is not a tty". I've tried
SET CYGWIN=tty
in cygnus.bat, but to no effect. Any suggestions?
(The eventual plan is to use Sergey Okhapkin's remote.tar, with inetd
running as a service for telnetd. Then I can telnet into my NT
workstation and run emacs there in character mode. Has anyone else
done this successfully?)
This has come up before on the gnu-win32 list, but I found no solution
posted. Any suggestions? I would *really* like to be able to run
nt-emacs from a remote telnet session.
Thanks for your help.
Kind regards,
David
