Do this: ps -auwwx | fgrep ttyp0 Do you see any other processes on ttyp0? Perhaps sshd owned by root? If so, kill that one and the dead bash shell should go away. I have a 4.2 box that is often getting hung sshd processes like this. It tends to happen when I paste text into my client. Only sshd is affected. I'm curious to know if you are experiencing the same thing. Let me (and the list) know what you find on your system. If it is reproducible on different boxes then we can pass some good data to the freebsd-bugs people.
