 You go to /etc/xinetd.d and see the file wu-ftpd. If there is any entry
like disable yes. You just comment this line and reboot the system.

 I have seen reports of this problem before, with no conclusive solution.

 On a fresh 7.1 install, I can ftp localhost without a problem on the

 Remote ftp sessions connect, then are closed by remote host.
 syslog shows nothing interesting.

 I have checked:
 - hosts.allow/deny
 - ftpaccess/ftpuser/etc
 - ipchains

 I've even watched tcpdump traffic and still don't see anything obvious.

 One interesting thing - ftp to the box fails, but telnet to port 21
 works, and I can login with USER and PASS and do a pwd.
 Boggles the mind, doesn't it?

 My coworkers urge me to just get an updated rpm or use proftpd, but I'd
 like to know why this is failing.  I suspect something to do with
 tcpwrappers and reverse lookups, but I'm not sure.  Like I said, I'm not
 the first to see this problem.

 Thanks.
