    Hi

    Please could anyone suggest a solution to this problem

    We are scping files across from one machine to another, both running
    solaris. Each time scp runs, it opens a child SSH process on the remote
    machine. When the scp has run and closes it leaves the child SSH
    process behind as a zombie process. These zombie proccesses grow until
    they have manually killed. Does anyone know how to use scp without
    leaving zombie ssh processes running on the remote machine?

    Thanks

    T
