Thanks for your response. I'm still running into this with 1.5.21. The
background process has to be ran from a script, as in the example I provided
above. If you kick the script from the command line, this problem does not
occur. If you run the example above with ./file1.sh, you should see the
problem. I didn't run into this with DLL version 1.5.18. Here is the bash
and DLL versions of both:

I also tried Bash 3.00.16(11) with DLL version 1.5.21 and still had a
problem. I see this on several machines so it's not isolated to one.
Thanks for your help and any info you can provide,
I have tried this locally with 1.5.21 and bash 3.1.17-8 using the scripts
you provided and don't see the issue you report. That's not to say that
there isn't an issue. Only that I cannot reproduce it. Maybe it's worthwhile
for you to review the output of 'cygcheck -srv' and see if something there
catches your attention. If not, sending it to the list might spot something.
