Does anyone know what's going on or a better way to do this >without reprogramming the VB.NET code? Cygwin kills non-cygwin processes when it is processing an unhandled CTRL-C. It's worked that way for years and I, for one, rely on that behavior. This is one case where we can't accommodate native windows programs perfectly. Do you know of a way to gain control of a service started by cygrunsrv so that I could do a manual control-c -- like maybe redirect tty to a service? The app does work in cygwin with ctrl-c, I just lose control of my ability to hit ctrl-c when I run it as a service (which is what I think I have to do since I want to start it from ssh and have my ssh call not hang indefinately). -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/kill--2-is-too-powerful-tf4072624.html#a11582466 Sent from the Cygwin Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
