Hi Paul, I have set security to standard, nothing fancy. Did some checks. What I did wrong, probably, was disable the FTP ports 20 and 21 in /etc/services. I noticed that this had an impact, since I couldn't FTP to the outside world anymore. Changed that back now. Still I wonder how to get ProFTPd going in Xinetd-mode, since that is what I seem to need. At this point port 21 is in use: [root@tbird paul]# fuser -n tcp 21 21/tcp: 9251 [root@tbird etc]# proftpd -n -d0 tbird.merlijn - Failed binding to 0.0.0.0, port 21: Address already in use tbird.merlijn - Check the ServerType directive to ensure you are configured correctly. ProFTPd is set up as Standalone when I do this. Setting it up as "inetd" system tells me: [root@tbird etc]# proftpd -n -d0 tbird.merlijn - Fatal: Socket operation on non-socket tbird.merlijn - (Running from command line? Use `ServerType standalone' in config file!) (After some more typing...) It works?! I just wanted to show what PID 9251 is saying. It says: [paul@tbird etc]# ps 9251 PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND 9251 ? S 0:00 proftpd (accepting connections) Accepting connections??? So why not: [paul@tbird etc]# ftp ftp> open tbird Connected to tbird.merlijn. 220 ProFTPD 1.2.5rc1 Server (ProFTPD on TBIRD) [tbird.merlijn] 500 AUTH not understood. 500 AUTH not understood. KERBEROS_V4 rejected as an authentication type Name (tbird:paul): I do NOT know what I changed to the better this time. But it works! Apparently it has been running all the time. I think I need more coffee... Have a good weekend, and thanks for the stimulus to dig into this again.
