if i remember correctly EXEC is an interface to the exec family of syscalls. so writing EXEC
["killall prgname"] will result in the program "killall prgname" to be executed. i suggest that none
of your programs is named like that (i can't interpret the error message for it is not in the manual
of the exec family of functions, so i may be wrong with all this). you could try using EXEC
["killall", "prgname"] which will call the program killall with "prgname" as parameter.
