Thanks -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kit Wong Sent: 02 August 2010 16:04 To: BlueOnyx General Mailing List Subject: [BlueOnyx:05155] Re: restarting proftpd and xinetd Hi Guys OK, so there is no need to restart anything since new login of ftp after modifying /etc/proftpd.conf is immediate. I am now trying to workout how to change the site-adm default dir from ~/../../.. site-adm which logs in to /.user/xxx/username to /web which is the domain's website directory. I am getting lots of people who are uploading to /.user/xxx/username/web and contacting me to say their website is not working. ( ~/web site-adm goes to /.user/xxx/username/web which is not what I am intending to do) I have tried a lot of different combinations but just can't seem to figure it out.

I have tried restarting xinetd but the configuration is still not changed. The question is did service xinetd restart also restarted proftpd? Do I need to issue another command? Service xinetd stop Service proftpd restart Gives me the same error. There is a process in.proftpd which is why I assume it uses xinetd and also proftpd.conf uses xinetd. Thanks in advance. Oh I have also disabled and reenabled ftp in the gui but still the same!
