Does a program similar to unix's "KILL" exist on the amiga?

If so, where can I find it?
 
I often use my amiga remotely, and always seem to tie up the system
with useless tasks that only slow the system down. I have built a re-boot
sequence that I can initiate remotely incase something nasty happens, but
it would be far better if I could just type 'kill pid'

Other question:

Is there any way of totally suppressing the system requesters?
I have Noreq, posted a long time ago, but some programs still insist upon
bringing the requester up.  One of the problems is that an Arexx program
I wrote often needs to check the existance of a volume (like man:), but
if it's not assigned, a requester popp's up, and the machine locks up
remotely.  I have worked around that particular thing, but there are others.
