Re: FTPd problems
Check your DNS settings. Make sure you have entered the machine names / aliases versus the IP addresses in the /etc/hosts file.

Re[2]: FTPd problems
Hi Jake, On Tuesday, April 24, 2001, 1:44:02 PM, you babbled something about: JM> No, I don't think it's a DNS problem. DNS is working fine. I can telnet into the JM> machine fine. SSH works fine too. It's not a problem of connecting to the JM> machine, it's a problem with wu-ftpd. I'm sure it's not in DNS. Thanks for the JM> help, though. JM> Jake It is probably because the xinetd does ident lookups for most services now for logging purposes. I had a similar problem with POP3. This may or may not help, but look in the /etc/xinitd.d/ folder for the related file and look for a line like this... log_on_success += USERID The "+= USERID" is what adds the ident lookup to the log. You can just comment it out to test, then if it helps read up on xinetd to see what you want to make permenant. Hope it helps. JM> On Tue, 24 Apr 2001, Mike A.

Re: FTPd problems
No, I don't think it's a DNS problem. DNS is working fine. I can telnet into the machine fine. SSH works fine too. It's not a problem of connecting to the machine, it's a problem with wu-ftpd. I'm sure it's not in DNS. Thanks for the help, though. Jake On Tue, 24 Apr 2001, Mike A.

FTPd problems
I'm running 7.0, and have been having seme problems getting ftpd work work right. I'm using wu-ftpd 2.6.1(1). What's happening is when I, or anyone else tried to ftp into my machine, it takes about 2 minutes before the username/password prompt comes up. This is not just happening for the outside world, it is also happening on my internal network. If I sit on the machine and ftp localhost, it seem to work ok. Once the people are logged in, it's fast, like normal. It's just the initial login process that is taking a lot of time. Has anyone seen this before? I'm thinking it might just be a missing argument in xinetd for ftp or something, hopefully. Right now in /etc/xinetd.d/wu-ftpd the arguments are -l -a, which I believe are the defaults.
