Hello,  
I'm doing Elasticsearch Engineering II - Lab 3.1: Securing Elasticsearch - Section 7

> **[Strigo](https://app.strigo.io/training/ondemand/QyjQh3fzEKAYSEcmv)**

I should stop Kibana but I have no terminal opened, so I can't press CTRL+C.  
I have no permission to perform kill -15 . I don't know password for root / sudo.

Can you please help me?

Hey Václav,

You shouldn't need root access to kill Kibana. Make sure you ssh into `server1` first. From there you should be able to issue the `kill` command with the user you're logged in with.
