Sorry, I was writing that from work and didn't check. Both ftp and in.ftpd are still in netstd: % dpkg -S /usr/bin/ftp;dpkg -S /usr/sbin/in.ftpd netstd: /usr/bin/ftp netstd: /usr/sbin/in.ftpd % If you are getting a connection refused, maybe you don't have in.ftp enabled in /etc/inetd.conf or /etc/xinetd.conf (depending on if you use inetd or xinetd respectively). Search for the line with the word "in.ftpd" and make sure it doesn't have a # in front of it, if it does remove it and do /etc/init.d/netbase reload (as root) Hope that helps. references: man services, man inetd.conf -- Rafael Kitover [EMAIL PROTECTED]
