Re: stopping and starting daemons...

[Dan Cyr <dan valleynet bc ca>]

ps aux  - will show all processes
ps auxw - will show all processes and wrap the lines around your screen.

killall httpd - will kill ALL httpd processes
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start - will start it up 

I find that /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd stop  - doesn't work at all, though it
may for you.
