Now I'm replying to myself :)
when I connect to wu-ftpd via inetd everything is just fine. xinetd seems to make problems.
Ideas?
We used to run into these problems on ftp.suse.com some months ago, when we waded through the packages to check for ipv6 comliance. xinetd does not have a runtime switch to turn off ipv6 support, there is only the possibility to recompile the package with ipv6 disabled. Install the source rpm and remove the line containing "--with-inet6" from the specfile, then recompile the package using the command rpm -ba xinetd.spec. The author of xinetd did not want to have the switch, so we did not implement one as well.
I'm using xinetd instead of inetd. After issuing lsof this is what I get>
xinetd 11282 root 3u IPv6 10917544 TCP *:ftp (LISTEN)
ftpd uses IPv6 and wu-ftpd documentation states no IPv6 is currently supported. How can I change this from IPv6 to IPv4? I guess it's the matter of xinetd.
