Re: long timeouts on shutdown/log off


Stranger and stranger.

As there are only 3 in the task list it means that quite a few of the cron
jobs are finishing ok. (I run it every hour)

But more importantly, why can't winxp kill those tasks properly when I log
off or shutdown?  And why has it only started happening in this latest
version of cygwin?

Regards
