You need to teach the remote linux host about the "cygwin" terminal
type. There are two ways to do this, in general:
for termcap applications, add an entry to the /etc/termcap file
describing cygwin (see your cygwin /etc/termcap file for the definitive
description)
for ncurses applications, add a entry in the terminfo database
describing cygwin (see /usr/share/terminfo/c/cygwin -- a binary file --
on your cygwin box). Or, see this message:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-02/msg00185.html
and read the section entitled "Connecting to remote systems"
