I just installed Cygwin with OpenSSH and got it setup on Windows Server 
2003.
When I use Putty on a remote machine to connect to the server, the 
server starts a bash.exe processes.
When I close Putty (alt-f4) the bash.exe processes remains on the server.
If I connect again, another bash.exe process is created.

Is there any way to configure bash.exe to close unused processes or do I 
have to manually go in to task manager and close these processes?
If I login a few times a day like this, I will eventually run out of 
available ram on the server.


Thanks!
