This Is Your Brain On Informatics: Common Pathnames
/etc/init.d/[service] [operation]
This "pathname" is actually a script that causes the initiate daemon (that constantly stays in memory) to act on a service that has been input. After the service, an operation can be input in from one of the following:
- start
- stop
- reload
- restart
- force-reload
For our purposes, the only services that we know that this script can act on are as follows:
- nginx
- mysql
- php5-fpm
If you get locked out of your server, enter pico /etc/hosts.deny Once you are in that file, delete the IP address (your IP address) that has been blocked at the bottom of the file.
