[net.unix-wizards] How to get rid of "<exiting>" process?

rlw@well.UUCP (Bob Weissman) (02/20/86)

Can anyone tell me how to get rid of an <exiting> process (i.e.,
one with the SWEXIT process bit set) short of rebooting the system?
I've tried all flavors of kill(1), but nothing seems to work.

Thanks,
