Another .bashrc Question

[O. Olson]

Hi,
	I have defined a number of aliasÂ’s in my .bashrc, and
these do not appear, so I assume that the .bashrc is
not sourced, when I start up cygwin or I log in
remotely. I have made copies of my .bashrc in / and in
/home/user_name/ - but it does not look at either of
them. 
	I have looked at the FAQ
(http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.using.bashrc)
In this I could not understand if the “HOME
environment variable” refers to an environment
variable in cygwin or under Windows. Under cygwin
“echo $HOME” gives /home/user_name  - but I don’t have
a HOME variable defined. 

	Am I missing something in trying to source my
.bashrc. 
Thanks for your replies and help.
Regards,
O.O.
