What specifically do you mean by "my server does not respond
anymore"?  Because if "the server" really doesn't respond anymore, you
can't even issue "kill -9".
The term "server" can mean different things:

1) A role in an interaction between two programs. The "client" is the one
    which issues requests, and the "server" is the one which fullfills
    them.

2) A program which is intended for the server role. Note that a program
    can be a server for one protocol and a client for another (e.g., a
    database server can be a DNS or LDAP client). (And some programs are
    even server and client for the same protocol)

3) A machine intended for running server programs.

You are thinking of the 3rd meaning. My guess is that Albert meant the
first.

And maybe he's referring to his client software... That's why I asked him for clarification.
