What's a good term setting for rlogin?

List:
I need a good TERM setting. I'm using rlogin from bash to connect to a
solaris machine. On those odd occasionions when I can use CDE, I can
resize my terminals and my slang programs work across the full terminal
size.
When I connect from Cygwin-bash, slang programs seem to think I've a
fixed 25-line screen.
The two term settings that work are vt100 and dtterm. None of the other
combinations of things in /etc/termcap (on the Solaris machine) work at
all. Of the two which work, dtterm works better.
Is there a set of termcap settings (preferably some I can copy from my
Cygwin files to my home directory on Solaris) which will allow the
remote connection to grok that I've 50 lines here, not 25?
Thank you.
Charles
