RE: Help: Setting up FTP server is not in the handbook... or is it?
Mark: Edit /etc/inetd.conf and comment out the FTP line. Then 'killall -HUP inetd' to restart. You should then be able to ftp to your machine. You should 'man ftpd' for further details on configuring ftp.

Hi, I have a lot of files in my computer that i wanted to share with my friends remotely via ftp server. I'm currently using freebsd 4.9 and I've been repeatedly scanning through the handbook but I cant seem to find the portion about setting up an ftp server. Did I miss something in the handbook or its just that there isn't acctualy any part that tells how to do it, or maybe freebsd is just using a different term? Can you give a link perhaps which will give me a hint on setting up an ftp server on freebsd? smile:) jay __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
