Subject:	Control-C handling from the ssh client
Message-ID:	<OFC860C74B.480C3F89-ON85256CA6.006B3CA3@bpd.treas.gov>

When I make an ssh client connection from the bash shell to another UNIX 
host, then want to cancel a running foreground command executing on the 
UNIX host (such as find / -print), I cannot use the Control-C key 
combination to kill the command on the UNIX host.  When I press Control-C 
on my client I get the message "Killed by signal 2."  Thus Control-C kills 
the local ssh process instead of the passing Control-C on to the UNIX 
host.  Is this expected and is there a way to change this behavior?  Is 
this a bash behavior or an openssh behavior?
