[isf-wifidog] Wifidog Process Hangs

[Nick Powers]

wdctl is the command to start|stop|restart and view status information
on your wifidog process. It installs, atleast on my server, in
/usr/local/bin/wdctl. Just type wdctl and it should present you with the
options available. I was in the same boat as you, in order for me to
restart I had to "kill" the process. This works much better! :-)

Hi

I am monitoring the list and picking up little pieces of information as

they go by.  You said " After running wdctl I found this version info:
" 

I am not familiar with wdctl could you explain a little so that I can 
try it.  Where and how do you run this command ?
