Bash script problem

[Markus.Grunwald@pruftechnik.com]

Hello,

I have a problem with a bash script. The script (example) is very simple:

----script.sh-----------------------
#!/bin/bash

echo hello
ssh PT-AGCMLX1 "while true; do date; sleep 10s; done" 
------------------------------------

When I start script.sh, look up its pid via ps and kill it, the ssh keeps 
running:

 9311 pts/4    S+     0:00 /bin/bash ./script.sh
 9312 pts/4    S+     0:00 ssh PT-AGCMLX1 while true; do date; sleep 10s; 
done

> kill 9311

 9312 pts/4    S      0:00 ssh PT-AGCMLX1 while true; do date; sleep 10s; 
done


How can I change my script so that it kills all its child processes, if it 
is killed itself ? I tried to use the "trap" function of bash, but it 
never used the correct pid...

Many thanks for your help,
