When I > try to use applications like ssh, ssh-keygen, git, snmpwalk, snmpnext Just an idea, all of those are network tools, that means they depend on DNS resolving, which may be slow if not set correctly.

I need to use Task Manager to kill the application (kill -9 That is very strange, Cygwin's programs respond to Ctrl-C fast. Are you sure you are using the Cygwin program, for instance ssh, and not the Microsoft program (of the same name)? > does not work either).

Good point and it needed to be tested, so that is out of the picture. Repeating what I hinted to above, maybe running the program under gdb you are specifying the whole path to the program, which is not the same as letting the shell find it. Try: `which ssh` to see which one is used. Another test is to use ldd or cygcheck to take a look at the libraries loaded... if they include anti-virus or other strange libraries, then that is interfering. Also using strace could (probably will) show where everything stops.

HelloI have also had the idea that this might be related to network application. I have tested with IP addresses so that is not an issue.
I have also checked that I am using the Cygwin application by providing the whole path.
I have also tried strace, but it bails out with an exception (c0000005) and then segmentation fault.
Attached you will find an output from: cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out ldd /usr/bin/ssh-keygen.exe > ldd_ssh-keygen.out strace /usr/bin/ssh-keygen.exe > strace_ssh-keygen.out Hopefully someone can make something out of this. PS I have also installed GitBash and the same problems appear there!!!! Eirik Nordbrøden, Netnordic AS (+47) 90174789
