ProftpD issues
I have a Fedora Core 3 server running proftpd, and for some reason the ftp server sometimes causes issues and won't allow me to FTP in, it will just hang there.
How can I restart the service manually from the shell so I don't have to reboot the entire machine remotely?
Also, is there an easy way to check to see why the service is causing itself to hang? Sometimes my FTP client will throw an error "IO Error: Read timed out"
Any ideas?
