Mandrake also provides helper scripts to do much of this for you. You can probably guess what these do, but look in the manpage if it's not clear: chkconfig proftpd off chkconfig proftpd on chkconfig --list proftpd chkconfig --add proftpd chkconfig --del proftpd Note that these do not start or stop a service, only configure them to start or stop at runlevel changes and boottime. It will modify those settings in the xinetd.d directory for each service it knows of. Blue skies...

[expert] hosts.deny and ftp
anyone knows which application is controlling the hosts.deny? if i have an ip been throw into this file, which application shld i restart so that box from that ip can come into the server again? The only method i know is rebooting the machine but that is kind of stupid. how do i get the proftpd to access connection? i have edited the xinetd and hosts.allow file but all failed to allow connection through. can someone help me on this?
