Process killing

[decrease789]

I am having trouble killing a process "rsync" I've used

Code: Select all

root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -HUP 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -INT 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -QUIT 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -ABRT 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -KILL 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -ALRM 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -TERM 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -USR2 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -0 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -4 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -5 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -6 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -7 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -8 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -10 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -11 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -12 445
root@kimba:/Users/james/Music#kill -13 445

and still no luck at killing this runaway process

Anyone know a way to kill a process other than this?

Code: Select all

# pkill -f rsync

should delete all processes that match 'rsync'.

don't get pkill on os X... i tried killall but that doesnt work either. doesnt matter i solved a problem that got me to this problem. so i dont care about killing that process anymore now. althought it would be interesting to find out how i can kill it.
