I don't run inetd on this box, so started up Proftpd in standalone mode. I made a quick ftp connection from another box and all seemed fine. Then I used ftpshut to try and kill proftpd, but it never did, and I had to kill it manually by pid. Now, however, everytime I try to connect I get a 500 Error about the server going down at whatever time I last tried to use ftpshut. It seems all ftpshut does is write to shutmsg, without affecting the daemon? So it still reports having gone down at the last time I tried ftpshut, despite the daemon being up and running. I have same set up on another box and it works fine. I just kill Proftpd manually on that one though... Any thoughts?? Thanks- Ken Windows 98: n. useless extension to a minor patch release for 32-bit extensions and a graphical shell for a 16-bit patch to an 8-bit operating system originally coded for a 4-bit microprocessor, written by a 2-bit company that can't stand for 1 bit of competition.
