           Summary: Running nohup sleep 70 & and then exiting shell, hangs
                    ssh
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 5.0p1
          Platform: Sparc
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: sshd
        AssignedTo: bitbucket at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: jwhite at datacenterinc.com


Overview:

Testing to make sure that nohupping a process will allow me to
disconnect with SSH (DOES work with telnet).

Steps to reproduce:

1) Install OpenSSH 5.0p1 on both machines
2) ssh user at machineA (from machineB)
3) Give user's password
4) When shell appears (ksh in my case), type nohup sleep 70 & and then
type exit twice to TRY to log out.
5) Session will hang until the sleep finishes.

Actual result: Hanging...

Expected result: Disconnect like telnet, just drop the connection.
