Re: stopping vsftpd

Darn!
I checked behind my computer that is under my desk, with Linux on it, and 
the Ethernet cable came out!
The tab that locks it in broke off.
Now lets see what happens!

I do have the init.d, just no .c.
And the vsftpd command does not work in the init.d directory, even though
vsftpd is there.
But I did killall, and now it stops on boot-up, with some kind of message
I'll have to remember it and look it up.
I think it was 3 letters and a colon.
But I press enter, and then I get to the login prompt.
So I uninstalled vsftpd, and I still have the same problem during boot-up.
Now when I try and re-install, or install anything, I hear it trying to
download from kernel.org and it will not go past 0%.

You shouldn't have a directory called /etc/init.c, but you should have
one called /etc/init.d. This is where the boot scripts are stored. If
you can't find them there, have a look in /etc/rc.d.
