ftp questions....

[bruce]

ok...

when i do a ls /etc/xinetd.d i get :

[root at lserver2 root]# ls /etc/xinetd.d
chargen      daytime      echo-udp  rlogin  servers   talk    time-udp
chargen-udp  daytime-udp  ntalk     rsh     services  telnet  vsftpd
cvspserver   echo         rexec     rsync   sgi_fam   time    wu-ftpd

which shows me the vs/wu ftpd files...

but i still don't know 'which' i'm using!!! nor do i know exactly where the
'config' file is that i'd have to alter/modify!!!

thanks..

please do a "netstat -nap|grep LISTEN" and look if your machine listens
at port 21. If so, you will see which application listens in the last
column of the output. I'm quite sure that it is xinetd or inetd.

In the first case, the ftp-service is either started by /etc/xinetd.conf
or a separate configfile in /etc/xinetd.d. In the later case (inetd),
it is certainly started in /etc/inetd.conf.
