I've found this question in the archives, but not the answer. I login to a machine running Cygwin (call it mypc) from one running Linux with this command:
xterm -e ssh mypc When I close the xterm on the Linux machine, the login bash process on the Cygwin machine becomes an orphan instead of terminating. Is there a way to have the bash process terminate instead? The reason this is a problem, or rather an annoyance, is that from this bash I run a simple terminal emulator program that copies everything it gets from the tty to a serial port and from the serial port to the tty. Once started, there is no way to end the program other than to send it a signal. I can do this from another ssh login session, but it would be a lot more convenient to just close the xterm.
