SSH Connection Still Active

[O. Olson]

Hi,
	I don’t know much about networking – so if there is
something obvious with this, let me know. 
	When I ssh from Cygwin to another machine, and then
close the Cygwin window without logging out, my
connection to the machine still remains active – by
this second part I mean that after I have closed the
ssh window if I “netstat” – I see the state of the
connection as “ESTABLISHED”. It still remains the same
state even after many hours. 

	I tried searching on google on this topic – but I
think I probably do not know the technical terms
involved so I am not finding the answer. 

Thanks to anyone who knows how to ask Cygwin to kill
connections that are closed. 
Regards,
O.O.
