hello I'm trying to enable pureftp daemon under xinetd (suse8.2). I doesn't work if I have this stated in /etc/xinted.d/pure-ftp: # description: The ftpd server serves FTP connections. It uses normal, \ # unencrypted usernames and passwords for authentication. This ftpd is \ # the pure-ftpd. service ftp { server_args = -A -E socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = root server = /usr/sbin/pure-ftpd # disable = yes } xinetd starts the service, port 21 is opened. Entering 'ftp localhost' produces ftp: connect: Connection refused If pure-ftp is ran as standalone server 'ftp localhost' works! Regards, himba -- This mail was Kmailed.
