This isn't the expected output, is it?


To be honest I had no idea what shoudl be right.

No surprise, since xinetd blocks ftp port as you can see above.
Double-check that if you want to run vsftpd via xinetd (in that case
you have a vsftpd config file in /etc/xinet.d), your vsftpd.conf
file does NOT include listen=YES. Else, drop the vsftpd file from
/etc/xinet.d and run vsftpd as a standalone daemon (service vsftpd
start). I think at some point in time you added a conflicting file
in /etc/xinet.d.


I discovered this about 4 yesterday afternoon. ripped the ftp from the xinetd.conf file and all was good.

Anyway thanks for the help.

Us newbies need as much as we can get since no one will pay to train us.
