Aloha,

I don't shut my machine down every day, so cruft tends to accumulate
over time.  Today, as I make a remote ssh connection from an xterm I get
an empty DOS box window on the screen for the duration of the connection.
If I close that window the ssh connection is shut down.

In the past I've restarted Cygwin to clean this up.  Is there a way
to quell this behavior by less extreme measures?


Thanks

Richard
