Michael, what are we trying to get to here.  I can tell you that ssh
from local linux host to remote windowshost works just fine.

Here is the tty output from the above commands you requested.
Also attached is copy/pasted commands and output in xterm window.

   /bin/sh -i
   \[\033[01;31m\]HOST:\h \[\033[01;33m\]\w\n\u  \[\033[00m\]

My complicated PS1 value is shown as escape characters.  I've
shortened it to [ PS1 ] for clarity:

   /bin/sh -i
   [ PS1 ]

(all on one line but wrapped for mail)
   [ PS1 ]exec ssh -l harry  -o ControlPath=/tmp/address@hidden:%p
   -o ControlMaster=yes -e none m2

   address@hidden's password: SECRET <RET>

   ControlSocket /tmp/address@hidden:22 already exists,
   disabling multiplexing
