[newbie] FTP anonymous or user

[terry]

i've reinstalled linux again 7th time and it still does not work.  this time i get a timeout to login although it connects tolocal linux machine using ip address it will not complete a ftp session. I think its got something to do with the domain.. I have set Domain Name: megabitwest.net               Host name:   http://www.megabitwest.net *       * by the way this is my URL , i hope to host my own domain with Linux!!! when i configured the lan ethernet card i chose ip # 209.54.142.164 (card in linux mach.)                        gateway ip # 209.54.142.161 (cisco dsl router)                        DNS server  ip #209.54.122.2   (my isp dns server) my /etc/inetd.conf has the line of: ftp    stream     tcp    nowait     root    /usr/sbin/tcpd   in.ftpd    -l  -a this is what the installation came up with! THIS IS BEYOND ME... HELP IF YOU CAN TERRY   my email is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
