Hi. I run a SuSE 8.1. I try to get the vsftpd to run. It says it should be started by /etc/inetd.conf. This line has been uncommented, but the vsftp will not start. How can I get it started ?. -- Med venlig hilsen - Best regards. Erik Jakobsen - erik@urbakken.dk Registered Linux user #114875 - http://counter.li.org SuSE Linux 8.1

Did you start the inet daemon? -- Mads Martin Jørgensen, http://mmj.dk "Why make things difficult, when it is possible to make them cryptic and totally illogic, with just a little bit more effort?" -- A. P. J.

I have tried ALT-F2 and vsftpd as well as vsftpd from a terminal window.

inetd loads up vsftpd when it needs it. If you want to test your server, use an ftp client [you can use konqueror by typing in: ftp://127.0.0.1/] to connect to 127.0.0.1 which is another name for "localhost" or your machine :o) Hope this helps.

All ok.

Thanks for your message. Vsftpd now is working fine :-)

Erik, I gotten vsftp to run using the following: Check Yast2 > Software > Install/Remove Software and search on ftp to make sure the packages are installed. Next use Yast2 > Network/Basic > Stop/Start Services (inetd) Choose on with custom configuration Find vsftpd and choose activate Finish Next open a terminal, su and switch to the /etc directory. By default vsftp only allows anonymous logins. Edit vsftpd.conf to configure vsftp to allow local users to login or make other changes as required. Reboot your machine, open a terminal and attempt to ftp 127.0.0.1 to see make sure its now working. Joel Vande Berg

Well, run the command: $ /etc/rc.d/inetd restart and then try: $ telnet localhost 21 and type 'quit' to exit. After you can telnet to this port you can use ftp. Regards, Choth Erik Jakobsen wrote:
