Cygwin is a POSIX environment executing within the Windows OS environment. If things happen outside of the Cygwin environment it cannot detect those. You must train your users to not use the Windows Task Manager to kill the process outside of the Cygwin environment. The problem does not exist in Linux because there isn't an environment inside an environment so there isn't a chance to use the tools improperly. -- cyg Simple -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
