    hi,

    i often ssh to another computer and do it as a different user name
    than myself.

    for example as user "johnq" i do

    ssh somehost -l "someuser"

    is there any way to tell in the new shell that i came from "johnq".
    anything in the new shells "someuser" environment variables or anyway
    to pass this info along... it would be very helpful because i would
    like to set certain preferences in the when running as someuser but i
    can't go changing somuser env variables because other people that also
    use "someuser" don't like my settings...
