  >> "Enter" then ~ then . will kill a hung SSH connection > is this the same as hitting CTRL-D? No. ^d is a character that is sent to the remote shell (bash, zsh, etc) to tell it to exit. ~. is something for the SSH client to tell it to cut the connect if (e.g.) the shell has hung. Thing of it like working at different OSI layers: ^d is HTTP, while ~. is like TCP or IP.
