Joe, the easiest way to restart the witango server  under OS X is to open the
terminal application (found in the /applications/utilities folder.  At the
command line, cd to /applications/witango/server and then perform the following
command:

sudo ./witangod 

(which tells the unix shell to look in the current folder (./) and start the
witango daemon.)  You will be prompted for the admin password, and then the
command will execute.  Another way to find out if the witango daemon is running
is to execute the following command: 

ps -ax | grep witango

(this basically says show all processes, then outputs the process command
results to grep and tells grep to find any line that contains the word witango.
You should get two results if the daemon is running, one for the command  you
just executed, and one for the server, if it is running.)

Unfortunately, at present, one needs to be a bit familiar with the unix
underpinnings of OS X to successfully manage witango on OS X
