Remote Process Kill combines some of the functionality of Tlist.exe and Kill.exe (in the Support Tools directory on the Windows 2000 CD).

The service can be installed with Instsrv.exe or Srvinstw.exe. See "Installing and Unistalling a Service" for more details.

Remote Process Kill also includes the following features:

• An installation option to allow the client to automatically install and start the service on a remote system
• An uninstall option

You must first install the service before running the tools.
