how can I set $REMOTEHOST ( so I can set $DISPLAY with sshd w\X11 forwarding)

[peter waltman]

hi -

trying to figure out how to set $REMOTEHOST when I ssh into a machine running
cygwin's imp. of sshd.  X11 forwarding works great when I set the $DISPLAY
properly, but I'd like to have it done in the .bashrc file (by checking if the
$REMOTEHOST var is set).

I've tried looking through the startup scripts on both my cygwin install and a
rh9 box, but can't find where it gets set.  can anyone point me in the right
direction?

tia,

Peter
