Comment (by eschnett):

 "sim --remote X ..." usually loads a different than "sim login X; ...". I
 tend to add code to the "envsetup" MDB entry to correct for this.

 One has to be careful to not just source /etc/profile, since this may
 overwrite people's setting in their ~/.profile.

 In your case, I would decide on a case-by-case basis whether to modify
 envsetup, or whether to source /etc/profile from the cron job.
