Update
Well, the following snippet of code is pretty ugly, but it seems
to work. It is executed by the server program in response to
a command from the client via SOAP.
my @ps = `ps -ef`;
my @pid = (split(/ +/, (grep(/login -- mrc/, @ps))[0]))[1];
my @kill;
while (1) {
last unless @pid = grep {$_ > 1} @pid;
push @kill, @pid;
my $pidlist = join('|', @pid);
last unless @pid = grep(/\s+[\d]+\s+($pidlist) /, @ps);
@pid = map {(split(/\s+/, $_))[1]} @pid;
}
kill 'TERM', @kill
What this does is get a list of all running processes, finds
one named "login -- mrc", then goes through the list
looking for all its children, children's children, etc.
Once it's done this, it kills them all. Ugh.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
