Stop server in Debian

[Dex]

How I can stop the server when it is running?

Please, help ...

OS: Debian 6.0 (x86)

if its still the active process (so you can still see whats being said and whatnot) simply press CTRL+C or type command: exit

if you ran it via "screen", which is the method you should use for running mta-server, check out part 3 (My Connection Dropped - What Can I Do?) of this page: http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_screen and then type command: exit

to do it dramatically you can type ps to view current processes. the first column is the process id.

this is what you use for: pkill

You need to modify it a bit, but:

./server.sh

./server.sh
