[vox-tech] Cygwin and Debian

[Richard Crawford]

Whenever I ssh into my Debian box, Lucien, with Cygwin from a Windows 
computer and try to execute Vi or top or similar tools, I get an error 
like the following:

Unknown terminal "cygwin" in $TERM

Naturally, this doesn't happen when I SSH into my Red Hat computers.

How do I fix this issue so that I ssh successfully into my Debian 
computer?  I'd rather not have to put PuTTY onto my Windows computer, 
just because I'd rather not have redundant terminal programs (if that 
makes sense).
