post output for

ps aux | grep lfd

thanks for your help. this is result of command on 2 server
server 1:

[root@ln06 ~]# ps -aux | grep lfd
Warning: bad syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'? See /usr/share/doc/procps-3.2.7/FAQ
root 20513 0.0 0.0 61348 788 pts/0 S+ 15:43 0:00 grep lfd
[root@ln06 ~]# /etc/init.d/lfd status
Status of lfd:lfd is stopped

server 2

[root@ns ~]# ps -aux | grep lfd
Warning: bad syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'? See /usr/share/doc/procps-3.2.7/FAQ
root 7307 0.0 0.0 61288 788 pts/0 S+ 15:37 0:00 grep lfd
root 20629 0.0 0.4 133932 32916 ? Ss 00:00 0:11 lfd - sleeping
[root@ns ~]# /etc/init.d/lfd status
Status of lfd:lfd (pid 20629) is running...

with server lfd still not running after i start it. how i can fix ?

copy past the command i gave, apparently you used / and not | between ps -aux and grep lfd.

@xlinux

This should run as

ps aux | grep lfd

but not

ps -aux | grep lfd

Anyway on server 1 lfd is stopped, and on server2 is running (in state sleeping).

 

[SeLLeRoNe]

Actually to me work in both ways.

But, thanks for correction.

Regards

It will work both ways, but when using the -aux you will have a syntax error notice, because that is not the correct command.

Well.... in this thread:
http://www.directadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=43844
you wanted to turn of lfd, so it was running before.

What have you done to disable it at that time? Maybe the solution to get it working again can be found there.

Another solution is to backup your config files (csf.conf, csf.allow, csf.pignore), reinstall CSF, overwrite the configs again with the ones you backupped, maybe it works then.

i link my topic , i restart csf and lfd but it is not running

just a shot in dark but after any csf/lfd disabling don't you HAVE to do csf -e for directadmin?

 

[SeLLeRoNe]

csf -e enable and have to be done from ssh
