      When configuring an ssh slave which runs on cygwin, the environment variables are not loaded.
      However I do know that ~/.bash_profile is executed and sourced, because it will display echo commands in the output console if I insert them there.
      Also things like PATH and PWD do not exist, causing any command to fail.

      Output from the ssh looks like this (note remote environment is empty):

      Cygwin verion 1.5.24-2
      SSH from the machine that runs Jenkins to the machine works fine.

      I know this is not a lot for recreation, If you need any other logs to troubleshoot them please specify in the comments
