Great! I've re-started xinetd and tried to ftp to the localhost or from my
PC to the server.
I have vsFTPd installed on the box which answers on port 21.
I can's see any activity for ftp.proxy. The log is not updated, nothing is
written to the box every time I ftp.
Should I update /etc/services and plug in ftpproxy there?
My ftpproxy service in /etc/xinetd.d directory looks like like the
following.
How can I add at least one client to test if ftp.proxy works?
Any syntax examples?
Any logs examples? Maybe some troubleshooting examples are available
somewhere?
/etc/xinetd.d/ #root# cat ftpproxy
service ftpproxy
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = nobody
server = /usr/local/sbin/ftp.proxy
server_args = -e -m
}

Hi Patrick,
If you can send me your program that would be great. I would get the idea
how to manage the proxy product and maybe with the small modifications I
would be able to use it.
Thanks so much for the quick response.

If you already have something listening on port 21, you'll need to choose a
different port (like 2121 or something). You can do that by adding a line to
your /etc/xinetd.d/ftpproxy file like the one below and restart xinetd.
port = 2121
You won't need to add a user to start with, since you don't have an ACP yet,
which is the thing that will require authentication on the proxy itself. So
to test, you'd run ftp and and type "open localhost 2121". It will prompt
you for a username, which would be something like "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".
The password would be your email address. If you can do an ls or get, then
you're working!
