Use the following VBScript code straight from MS:

strComputer = "MachineY"
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2&quot
Set colProcessList = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * from Win32_Process Where Name = 'Notepad.exe'&quot
For Each objProcess in colProcessList
objProcess.Terminate()
Next

You can modify this code to accept arguments and run it from the commandline like so:

cscript c:\path_to_scripts\termprocess.vbs /A:Notepad.exe /M:MachineY

Or you may use ADSI and enumerate through a group of computers and kill processes at each machine. For more scripting help go to:
