Connecting with putty loses environment variables :(
I've just got ssh connection going using putty and dropbear to connect as root.
During my boot process fun_plug sets the environment variables "TRANSMISSION_HOME=/mnt/HD_a2/.transmission" (I know this is working OK as I output env to a test file to make sure).
I notice that after connecting via putty that this variable is no longer set and as a result transmission-remote will not run until I export the variable again.
Does anyone know what happens when the ssh connection is made and how I can stop this variable being lost?
Cheers

Re: Connecting with putty loses environment variables :(
The password-less telnet inherits all the environment variables from the fun_plug script. But login-sessions, like ssh connections will create a new environment for each sessions. It's composed of a standard environment plus stuff set in /.../fun_plug.d/etc/profile plus $HOME/.profile.

This is a real rarity - a forum that actually helps people !!!!!!
/.../fun_plug.d/etc/profile sorted it out for me
