If this were just a general question about how to hide windows of console apps, I'd suggest 'run' to you but if you don't know how the window is getting there in the first place, you won't know where to use 'run' anyway. In any case, what you can gather from this line of questioning is that running Cygwin's SSH server on any recent version of Windows (from W2K on) won't generate a window in the task bar if you run it as recommended (i.e. as a service set up via ssh-host-config). -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
