Close applications using the ‘killall’ command

February 17th, 2009

If you need to close an app on a system, you can use the ‘killall’ command.

Select the machines you wish to work with, then choose ‘Unix’ from the menubar, then chose which systems to perform the action on. In the command field, enter ‘killall APPNAME’, for instance, ‘killall TextEdit’ will close that app on the selected machines.
