ok...
here's what i get...
[root@lserver2 /]# cat /etc/xinetd.d/wu-ftpd
# default: on
# description: The wu-ftpd FTP server serves FTP connections. It uses \
# normal, unencrypted usernames and passwords for authentication.
service ftp
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/local/sbin/in.proftpd
## server_args = -l -a
log_on_success += DURATION
nice = 10
}
does this mean that whoever set this up is actually using the 'wu-ftpd' file
to run a 'PROftpd' server??? and why???
also, how can i find the actual config file to modify!!!!
thanks for all the help....

Look for the line 'disable' in files /etc/xinetd.d/wu-ftpd and
/etc/xinetd.d/vsftpd. Is should be read as 'yes' at least in one of
these files. The actual FTP server is that _without_ 'yes' for this
option (or with 'no' value fot 'disable').
