Proftpd running.. but something munged?

[dbrooke]

Hello,

It appears proftpd is running (when I do a netstat) but I can't connect to it with ISPConfig and running some debugging reveals some sort of error:

root@ubuntu:/home/donovan# proftpd -t

Thanks for any help on this!

Can you kill all Proftpd instances and then start it again?

Can you kill all Proftpd instances and then start it again?

yes, done... However, now I'm thinking it was actually working and that I didn't know how to use ISPConfig! I think this is one of those RTFM things... because I believe I just had to set up a site first in ISPConfig. Now that I have a site set up, Web-FTP is not hanging. ??

It appears I am good to go until my next noob confusion. :)

thanks,
Donovan
