i just noticed this today after i updated my base cygwin yesterday.
if i use putty to establish a ssh session and just hit the X to close
(instead of typing 'exit'), the server leaves a copy of bash running
till i go in an manually end process.
i've tried reinstalling everything and still have the same problem
i'm using the base install with only openssh added.
i dont think i had this problem before i updated yesterday.
can anyone duplicate this? and does anyone have any idea about what
could fix it?
thanks,

See if this helps: http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-12/msg00261.html
I know the referenced message is rxvt + bash specific, but it should
give you some things to look for in putty + ssh + bash.
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-12/msg00209.html seems less relevant.
A search of the archives for zombie bash or zombie ssh gives tons of pointers.
Basically, don't hit the X, type in 'exit'.
