Stop and or Start psa-proftpd

[Shanats]

I notice plesk is using psa-proftpd, but not able to stop or start it, further research revealed its being run under /etc/init.d/xinetd , i doubt that though, because stopping xinetd doesnt stop ftp.

How is ftp controlled?

I confirmed ftp is infact running as xinetd, however, when xinetd is stop, for some reason i was still able to access ftp.

i stopped xinetd again and this seems to work as ftp was no longer accessible.

This issue is resolved and does not require any further reply.
