@chapter Known/potential Problems in the Latest Net Release
@section Aware of the problem, no solution known.
@subsection On Win9x, scp and cvs/ssh leave ssh processes running
For now you'll just have to kill them manually.
This is a difficult problem, related to the implementation of select()
and pipes on Windows 9x. It has been discussed at length on the cygwin
mailing list. For an excellent technical description of the problem, see
@file{http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-12/msg00470.html}, and
related threads.
@subsection Cannot access tape devices with mt on Win9x
Win9x does not support the API used by the Cygwin fhandler_dev_tape
class. Details at
@file{http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-12/msg00331.html}.
@section Fixed in the Next Release
Nothing currently.
