multiple ssh's freeze - win2k

[jeff deifik <jeff dot deifik at jpl dot nasa dot gov>]

I downloaded the latest cygwin software as of yesterday, oct-01-2002.
I use ssh with dos windows (without starting bash first).
When I have more than one ssh session (i.e. 2 dos boxes, each with one 
ssh session),.
one of the ssh sessions 'freezes up' after a delay from 1 minute to 
about 30 minutes.

To reproduce this problem, get 2 dos boxes, ssh somewhere in each one, 
and wait.
Eventually (less than 30 minutes), one will not respond to input.

If I have a sftp session running, a ssh session will freeze up, and 
usually within
2 or 3 minutes.

I have observed this problem for at least 6 month, with successively 
newer versions of
ssh and cygwin software. My current workaround is to only have one ssh 
or sftp running
at a time. This works without any problems.

I am always logging into a solaris system, running solaris 7.
I am running windows 2000, sp 2.
I have been using cygwin since before beta-17.

   thanks,
