I forgot to follow through on the example below. So here it is. My take is
that if I want to kill the apache job from the shell, I want to kill the PID
6029390, which is not the smallest, btw.

Logging on as www.apache, going into the shell, and issuing:

kill -s TERM 6029390

has the desired effect of terminating the job without a "job aborted by
system management" message. I take the absence of such a message as proof
the KILL worked as desired.
