Subject: Re: Enabling ftp via xinetd

if your are using redhat 9 then ftp is available as an independent service you can enable it by

 

# service vsftpd [start | stop | restart | status]

 

then try

 

ftp localhost or ftp 127.0.0.1

 

else

 

you will have to enable it manually :

 

# vi /etc/xinetd.d/vsftp

 

disable = no

 

save and exit

 

service xinetd restart

 

then try ftp localhost

Hi all,
I am a bit more confused now. The output my troubleshooting are as follows:

1) ftp localhost
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection

2)rpm -qa|grep ftp
ftp-0.17-17
gftp-2.0.14-2
vsftpd-1.1.3-8
lftp-2.6.3-3

3) find /usr/ . -name *ftpd*
/usr/sbin/in.mtftpd
/usr/sbin/vsftpd
/usr/share/doc/vsftpd-1.1.3
/usr/share/doc/vsftpd-1.1.3/vsftpd.xinetd
/usr/share/man/man5/vsftpd.conf.5.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/vsftpd.8.gz
/usr/local/src/wu-ftpd-2.6.2.tar.gz
/usr/local/wu-ftp/wu-ftpd-2.6.2.tar.gz
/usr/local/wu-ftp/wu-ftpd-2.6.2
/usr/local/wu-ftp/wu-ftpd-2.6.2/doc/ftpd.8
/usr/local/wu-ftp/wu-ftpd-2.6.2/src/ftpd.c
/usr/local/wu-ftp/wu-ftpd-2.6.2/support/wuftpd_glob.h
/usr/local/wu-ftp/wu-ftpd-2.6.2/util/wu-ftpd.spec
./doc/ftpd.8
./src/ftpd.c
./support/wuftpd_glob.h
./util/wu-ftpd.spec
