Dan:

Here's my experience.

Running j.exe: no good.

Running jconsole from a DOS box: no good.

Running jconsole from a Cygwin bash shell: everything works as you would
expect.  I think that in this case the spawned process inherits the
environment settings from the initial login.  Running a login shell on the
command line should do it.

Best wishes,

John
