ftp daemon is the process that runs in the background that listens on port 21 (usually) fro FTP connections. It can be pureFTPd, proFTPd, vsftpd,...
so to restart vsftpd, you'd do as root:
Code:
/etc/init.d/vsftpd restart

"Cross your fingers", just means "hope for success", or good luck Smilie

If you can login through fireFTP, using SSH, then you're done. Enjoy.
