Minecraft multiplayer: how to get rid of a bunch of ender dragons [duplicate]

This is a bit embarrassing.

BACKSTORY: I got griefed recently in my friend's multiplayer server: the offender spawned loads of Ender Dragons which attacked me, and then he kicked me out and banned me. I've been given access again (and the offender has himself been banned).

Actual question: I'm now back in creative mode, difficulty=peaceful, carrying on with my building. But all the Ender Dragons are still hanging around and getting in the way - they're really distracting. I've tried attacking them with a diamond sword but haven't managed to kill a single one yet. There must be a command i can type to get rid of them all - is there?

EDIT - i've googled this a bit and a common solution is to do /killall or /killall EnderDragon but the /killall command doesn't seem to be activated on this server.

thanks, Max

Use a Bukkit Plugin

If you are on a Bukkit server, you can install a plugin called Essentials which has a /killall command. Using it, you can kill mobs:

/killall [mob type] <radius> [world]

So you can kill all enderdragons using this command:

/killall EnderDragon 1000

(This will kill all ender dragons in a radius of a 1000 blocks from you)

Edit the world offline

You can copy your world to your local machine and then edit it using a program like MCEdit. Then, go to the end dimension and press Ctrl + A to select the whole end. Then use the button Remove Entities to remove all entities (mobs, creatures, items ...; but no blocks).
