So when the init script tries to start it, it fails because there is already a proftpd started. The IPV6 error is only a problem if you need IPV6. Otherwise: # ps ax | grep proftpd ? Ss 0:00 proftpd: (accepting connections) # kill # /etc/init.d/proftpd start # (if you want to start at boot) rc-update add proftpd default On 10/19/06, Chuanwen Wu wrote: > Hi list! > I can't start my proftpd! > > # proftpd > - IPv6 getaddrinfo 'localhost' error: Name or service not known > > then: > # /etc/init.d/proftpd start > * Starting proftpd ...
