what is the command to uninstall processes in linux?

Answer Posted / venkat palavarapu

Hi Rudra85, Your question was not clear. Try to furnishing as per my assumption.
If your looking for stop/kill the process then:
1) 1st you need to find the process PID
# ps -aux | grep <Process name>
Example:
# ps -aux | grep ssh
The OUTPUT as follows

USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND
root 1 0.0 0.1 2160 636 ? Ss Jan30 0:25 init [3]
root 2 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S< Jan30 0:00 [migration/0]
2) # kill -9 <PID>
Example: kill -9 1

Incase your looking for uninstall the package then follow below steps:
1) # rpm -qa | less [Display all installed packages]
# yum -y remove <package>
(OR)
# rpm -e <Package>
