It depends on their specific contracts, and how much the station paid to run the rerun. Most of the time they get a percentage, which is more or less depending on how big the deal was.
I know that in the specific case of MASH, there was a lawsuit that alleged that the company that owned the rights essentially sold the rights to replay the show to itself (that is, to stations owned by the same company) for basically nothing, and no matter how big your percentage is, any percentage of basically nothing is basically nothing. The case was eventually settled out of court; presumably they're getting somewhat more now than they were previously.
Old (pre-mid-1970s) contracts generally terminated residuals at some point. Newer ones mostly don't. I don't have details on the exact terms of the specific actors/writers/etc. on MASH, but based on the fact that they thought it was worthwhile a couple of years ago to enter into a lawsuit, presumably at least some of them are still getting walking-around money from it. (The standard deal is 80% to the production company, 20% divided among the individuals involved.. some of whom may be part-owners of the production company and thus get a share of the 80% as well as a share of the 20%.)
