Quick samba question

Wouldn't killall just kill any forked processed produced by smbd?  Since
nmbd and smbd are 2 separate processes (daemons to be exact), a killall to
just smbd wouldn't affect nmbd.

I really don't know... so this is more or a question than a correction.

Also, would a killall be the equivalent of kill -9 (minus the agressive
force used by -9)?
