KillAll - Kill all server clients

The KillAll command will kill all clients. A message is sent to all clients before the clients are killed.

Kill all sends a message to all active clients that the server will shut down within the time defined in the timeout parameter. New clients cannot login anymore. A warning is sent to the clients that the client is going to be killed. When clients are terminated abnormally no message can be sent. The result is that the server waits for the client to receive the kill message.

KillAll server port [timeout]

Definition: 

server - server url or IP address

port - port number for the server passed when starting the server

timeout - The KillAll command waits "timeout" seconds (default: 300) before killing the clients.For killing dead clients without message one may pass 0 as timeout value.
