I'm using PuTTY Link (plink) Release 0.58. I connect from a German Windows XP SP2 client to a Debian Sarge server. Even executing "echo hello world" causes a zombie process: Dos prompt>plink [EMAIL PROTECTED] echo hello world Sarge prompt$ ps ux USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND [...] mburger 28993 0.0 0.1 3728 2040 ? S 18:48 0:00 sshd: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mburger 28994 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Zs 18:48 0:00 [bash] <defunct> [...] I tried to disable colored prompt and the "message of the day" - nothing helps. Using PuTTY (the Telnet and SSH client itself) to connect to the server causes no problems. I really have no idea what causes the zombie processes... After killing process with pid 28993 on the Sarge box, plink prints "FATAL ERROR: Server unexpectedly closed network connection" to the Dos box. Executing the command "plink..." a second time it works, it prints "hello world" to the Dos box. In most cases, the first executed command causes a zombie process, after killing the process and calling plink a second time it works. But if I change the command executed remotely, it causes a zombie process, again. Regards, Martin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
