read environent variable

i m trying to read environment variable in perl using

        $OSTY = $ENV{OSTYPE};
this will return os type as "linux" or "solaris". but when i try for cygwin
it returns empty string. is the some other syntax of way of finding value of
env variable in cygwin

Hi,

this is a mod_perl forum please ask perl questions on perl-monks or any
other perl-support forum and if it is a perlbug file a bug using perlbug
to p5p.
