Thanks, Karl. It seems the patch works with 2.9p2-2 also. I'm not
experiencing the hanging problem anymore.

Hi All...
I posted a workaround patch for OpenSSH 2.9p1 on 26 May, titled "ssh
hanging--a workaround", for this particular problem. I have not looked at
2.9p2-2 yet to see if it is still valid, but I expect that it is fine. Give
it a try, or I will take a look at it in the next couple of weeks.
There are a couple of hanging problems for OpenSSH. This particular one, I
found to be a problem with the ssh client select call. I think that Corinna
told me that it looked like a CygWin problem (the select call hangs if you
have done a fork() in ssh) and not an ssh problem.
Thanks,
...Karl
