The kill command ends processes. To use you need the process id (when you do a ps –ef, it will be the second column of the output.
kill command options: kill -ls Kills process (safe kill) it will end the process if it is not busy. kill -q (sure kill) will end the process no matter what(-KILL is the same as –q). kill -l (hup) restarts a process.
