The problem has not recurred (yet) so I don't know if ssh-agent was at 100% CPU. All I know at this point is that ssh-agent is *definitely* involved because killing that process restored ssh functionality. I.e. before killing ssh-agent: ssh connects but no prompt is displayed after killing ssh-agent: ssh connects and operates normally -- Jim Garrison -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
