Re: ctrl-c terminates ssh session using cmd.exe login shell

Using cmd.exe as the login shell, ctrl-c terminates the ssh session (rather than being propagated to the process on the remote server).

My question is - is there some way to work around this?

For example, running bash as the login shell, and then running cmd.exe, does not fix the

Basically you need to set the env var CYGWIN to contain 'tty', if you already have
something in CYGWIN, you might want to use:
(export CYGWIN="tty $CYGWIN"; cygstart bash.exe)...

You could set the env-var in a .bat file which then launches cygwin?

You can make the 'tty' setting permanently part of your CYGWIN var by adding
it to your windows environment (system properties, advanced,
Environ vars; user...)
