No. Process 1 is always init, which is the parent process of everything.
Doing a 'kill -HUP 1' sends a hangup signal to init, which tells init to
restart itself. One usually would do this after changing things like
/etc/inittab.
In order to kill the process you want to kill, you'll need to first find
its process ID value (ps will give you that) and then you can usually do
'kill PID' to get rid of it.
