Subject: [843] Help! ftpshup killed ftp.

Ok now, I rtfm, I checked all man pages, etc. I used ftpshut to shutdown 
ftpd, and now, even after reboot, I get a "Ftp is shut down" message. 

Could someone tell me more about how ftpshut functions, and how to get 
ftpd back on track?

Thanks!

ftpshut creates a file, specified by the 
	shutdown some_path
in ftpaccess. you need to rm that file to restore ftp services.
I added an "rm" of that file to the startup procedures on my machine
to make sure a reboot clears this.
