How to kill pocess in other console?

[Alan Dayley]

-Used "ps -a" on the second console to get a list of the processes on all
consoles.
-I got the id for the process I want to kill on tty1.
-I enter "kill 879" at console 2.
-A subsequent "ps -a" still shows the 879 process and switching back to
console 1, it is still hung.

Any thoughts?
