FYI, 'ps' only shows the processes for the current user (default flags are
'-lu$USER'). 'ps -el' should show all Cygwin processes (including the
sshd ones, running as SYSTEM [UID 18]). FWIW, you don't need to know the
number of the sshd process to kill the connection -- just "kill -1 <pid>",
where <pid> is the pid of the *shell* for the connection to be terminated.
The sshd process will die automatically once the child exits. Also, this
is NOT Cygwin-specific at all.
