stopping vsftpd

[Glenn at home]

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.
