On the server side, you can update the sshd_config file and set the value of the ClientAliveInterval to a non-zero value, like 60 seconds. Or you can set the ServerAliveInterval option to a similar value in your client options, either on the command line or in your local config file. -Origi

I have used Cygwin and CygwinX for many years and this problem has persisted for many of those years, I can't remember the last time this worked. Using vim in an xterm or terminal window displays text in a file properly. The problem with less is easy to reproduce, but there are several different

cron without sendmail generates bogus logfile names

2008-09-09 Thread Linus Hicks
The "poor man's mailer" included as part of the cron package uses the following construct to generate part of the filename used in making log file names: DATE=$(date '+%Y%m%d_%H%M%S') It then generates the filename as: FILE="/tmp/cron.$DATE.$$.log" However, it seems to be tacking on a CR charac

You have to find the cygrunsrv process associated with that service and kill it using Task Manager or whatever. I have not found a way of matching them up, so when I am having problems with one of my Cygwin services, I shut down all other Cygwin services so I don't kill the wrong one. -- lhicks a
