I think that the ksh is not killed because its parent, `tcsh -c
/bin/sh', is not killed. Try killing the parent manually and see if
that helps.
Also, have you still got the initial Emacs running? What happens when
you kill the `*rcp/bla blub*' buffer which is responsible for those
processes?
Should I do something special to kill the remote logins every once in
a while? What should I do about it?
I thought Emacs would reap all children when it exits, including the
remote login? And the remote login would reap the ksh which was
started?
Strange.
