Look at the output of a command 'netstat -ltp | grep :ftp'. It will show the name of a proccess listening on ftp port. If your FTP server is running as a standalone server (i.e. accepts incoming connections itself) it will show the FTP daemon's name (e.g. vsftpd). If your FTP server is started from xinetd on each request, the output of this command will show that 'xinetd' is listening on ftp port. In this case yopu should look at the xinetd.d configuration (/etc/xinetd.conf and files in /etc/xinetd.d) and find in those files the name of a program which is responsible for service 'ftp' (it is 'server' oprtion inxinetd.configuration). The program shown in 'server' option in xinetd configuration for service ftp will be the ftp server daemon program (e.g. /usr/sbin/vsftpd).

the issue i'm having is that although i can ftp in/access files from

box, when i do a:
# ps -aef | grep ftp

i get

which is curious.. to say the least...


It would make sense if it's based out of inetd or xinetd.  Which version
of Red Hat Linux are you running?  cat /etc/redhat-release if you're not
sure.

Also, do the following:
# rpm -qa | grep ftp


i can even enable/disable the ftp server/service from the gui (gnome) so

the

box is actually running a ftp server/service....

but i need to figure out the rest of the issues that i mentioned...

in my /usr/sbin i see in.wuftpd, vsftpd, and wu.ftpd...


You may have both installed.  Go to a command line and enter:
$ ftp localhost

Let's see the output of that.  By default, both vsftpd and wu-ftpd will
identify themselves in the response text.
