CloseAllSessions only closes the sessions for that application.. it
won't affect the value in shared memory if a prior process died...
you need to find the shared memory segment (ipcs command can be used to
list them) and remove it (alternativly, what happens if you reboot the
system?  New shared memory should be created)
