Hello all,
I have a server where the base IP is xx.xx.xx.154, and I added a domain on xx.xx.xx.155. However, by default the /etc/hosts file has my domain point to xx.xx.xx.154, which causes some problems. I've changed this to xx.xx.xx.155, and then everything works fine, with the exception of proftpd. When I attempt to start it I get the following warning..
warning: "ProFTPd" address/port (xx.xx.xx.155:21) already in use by "ProFTPd"
However, if I were to run `fuser -n tcp 21` prior starting it up, it would show that nothing was actually running on port 21. Does anyone know why this might be happening? I can simply change the /etc/hosts entry back to the other IP and it's resolved, but like I said, that breaks other things.
Thanks.
