Looks like the obhttpd process is trying to kill of its children
individually, but they've all already been killed.  Possibly by a signal
to the whole process group.  It's untidy, but it has achieved your aim
of killing the obhttpd processes.

Try watching what happens in top(1), and tailing the logfile(s) as you
shutdown the obhttpd service.  You should see obhttpd and its child
processes disappear as you type 'service obhttpd stop', and the child
process pids should correspond to what you see in the error message.

This connection is already closed.  You can tell by the question marks.
 It only still exists in the sockstat output as the kernel is hanging
onto the connection details so it can reap any stray packets that may,
belatedly, arrive.  If you wait patiently, these lines will eventually
disappear from the sockstat output.  Or you can just restart the daemon
anyhow -- it should come up normally.

	Cheers,
