[Serusers] RedHat FC3 problems stopping the server

[Eric Haskins]

Hello all ,

   I just did a clean install of ser-0.9.3_linux_x86_64_tar.gz on a new 
Fedora Core 3 box(fresh install). I didnt enable any modules
in the ser.cfg.

I ran the command to start ser and I got the listening message. So I tried 
to restart it and see what happens

serctl restart yeilds
Stopping SER : No PID file found! SER probably not running

But ps aux yields:
