If tcpserver is respawning, it's probably because you're running it
under supervise. If so, find the place that starts it, read that to
find the supervise directory it's running out of, and use svc -dx
<directory> to tell supervise to shut it down, and to shut down
itself. Or check if you're running supervise out of svscan; is there
an svscan running?
And do you know what all three instances are? That suggests three
different services being offered. Be sure you're killing what you
think you're killing!
