True daemons are independent of the parent.

I don't know why the parent is still running along with the "daemon", unless the daemon is not written correctly.

Anyway
Code:
kill -9 [pid of]daemon
kill -9 [pid of]wrapper

al-session-daemon -- session daemon for Albatross web applications SYNOPSIS

This manual page documents briefly the al-session-daemon command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. al-session-daemon is a daemon that implements a session server for Albatross web applications. It can store simple pieces of information for later retrieval. With the help of this daemon, you can distribute your Albatross web application across several web servers and store the sessions in one place. OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below. -D --debug Write debugging to log. -h --help Display program help. -k --pidfile Record server pid in pid-file, default is /var/run/al-session-daemon.pid. -p --port Listen on port, default is 34343. -l --log Write log to log-file, default is /var/log/al-session-daemon.log.
