The Tru64 man page for killall reads in part "When started by the
superuser, the killall
command kills all processes that can be terminated, except those processes
that started it, the kernel processes, and processes 0 and 1 (init)".
When doing some shell programming before I've used:
`ps ax | grep 'regexp' | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}' | xargs kill
-SIGHUP
