Use ipcs to list shared resources, ipcrm to remove one. The id is the
number listed under shmid by ipcs.
Remember the man program; that should be your first call for help on
program usage.
Example:
bash-2.01$ ipcs
------ Shared Memory Segments --------
key shmid owner perms bytes nattch status
0xacec9312 3 root 666 256776 0
------ Semaphore Arrays --------
key semid owner perms nsems status
------ Message Queues --------
key msqid owner perms used-bytes messages
0xacea0207 0 root 666 0 0
bash-2.01$ ipcrm shm 3
resource deleted
