Could somebody confirm which order these things come in?
You got the right order.
Note that killall5 is heavy, kludgy and System V-specific.
If your shell has a "kill" builtin, you can simply replace
"killall5 -15" with "kill -15 -1", and "killall5 -9" with
"kill -9 -1". It will work on Linux.
If your shell does not have a "kill" builtin, you're out of
luck, unless your script is running as process 1.
This is one of the reasons why I advocate running the last part
of the shutdown procedure as process 1 - it makes the final nuke
easy and portable.
