problem with vi over ssh


Hi,

   i  noticed  a problem with vi when i connect to a linux. i found no
   answers  about this problem anywhere: i start my cygwin and connect
   over ssh to a linux machine. when i want to open a file using vi ->
   vi file_name, i get the following:

   ----
   
    Terminal entry not found in termcap
    'cygwin' not known. Available builtin terminals are:
        builtin_ansi
        builtin_xterm
        builtin_iris-ansi
        builtin_dumb
    defaulting to 'ansi

   ----

   after  that, many of vi commands are not available, but it is still
   possible to work without problems.

   i am having this problem only if i use cygwin.

   any ideas? or is this normal?

   thanx a lot
