WHOA!! What I meant to say was "onmode -z sessid", NOT "-k"!! If you
did use the -k flag and then said yes to the Do you want to shutdown
question, and had problems, please accept my deepest apologies.
If you need the session id, it's the sid column in the sysmaster
database in the syssessions table. This table also has username and pid
for using to find the sid.

I just had to deal with this today. What happens is that your system
spends a lot of CPU time trying to read the port. If you get the session
ID and do an onmode -k sessid, it should kill the session. Then you can
kill the process without taking down the database.</BLOCKQUOTE>
