I'm currently running Red Hat here, and have a line in my
inetd.conf: 
#ftpstream  tcp nowait  root/usr/sbin/tcpd  in.ftpd -l -a 

If you have a similar line, uncomment it (remove the #) and
restart your system (maybe just killall -HUP inetd???) and
see if that fixes the problem.

I tried running the BeroFTPD on my system and never did get it working
properly. The only difference is that I was trying to log in as a user. I
could log in anonymously with no problems. Have you run the BeroFTPD config
yet ? This allows you to configure your anon accounts, directorys, and
ratios.

By the way, I finally un-installed BeroFTPD and installed wu-ftpd instead
and everything seems to be working  now. You may want to give this a try as
a last resort.

 Ok...

 I've checked and double checked to make sure that inet is
 being started at system boot. It is. I've also made sure that
 anonftp is installed. it is. BeroFTPD is also installed.

 when I try to ftp into my system I get a "service not available"
 message.

 should there be some mention of anonftp in my inetd.conf file
 in /etc or?

 what am I missing here.

etc.
etc.
