How can I get the ssh service to inherit the environment variables as set

You can't. Use one of the methods to propagate environment variables

thats what I thought.


can I get some comments and critiques on my solution below:


/etc/profile.d/winvars.sh



#! /bin/sh


cd /proc/registry/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/Session\ Manager/Environment/

for i in * ; do

bash -c "set -u ; echo \$$i" 2&> /dev/null || export $i="`cat $i`"

done
