I've come across a bug with freenas where the web ui (lighthttpd) can freeze up and render the service to hang. Is there an easy way to restart this service via a terminal?

Current versions of FreeNAS use nginx and the Django framework. They can be restarted as follows:

service nginx restart
service django restart

or

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/nginx  restart
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/django restart
