Subject: Killing processes
Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org
Precedence: bulk

Occasionally I will launch a process that gets hung up for one reason or
another..how do I kill that process when kill -kill PID# does not work nor
any of the other kill flags have an effect?

I have had to reboot to get rid of the processes...
