Likely what you are looking for is something like:
/etc/init.d/vsftpd start
Thanks, that worked with no complaints, however the connection is still refused from either the localhost or another machine :-/
I've checked /etc/vsftpd.conf and its all setup properly.
Check your repository. I have no idea what Kanotix uses, but likely it
has aptitude which can be run from the command line.
aptitude search screensaver
aptitude install <package name>
They use just the plain old Debian repos. And aptitude is command not found :P
Actually this is not the case. Update-rc.d only deals with setting up
the startup scripts to run at boot time (well technically scripts can be
run in any runlevel, but I am guessing that you do not know much about
init yet... man init if you are curious, )
I know that the kernel has runlevels. 5 is the normal one, 3 is a terminal, 6 is reboot, 1 is basically like a safemode root console, and I forget the others. I know in RH you use "chkconfig --add vsftpd" or whatever to add them to the runlevel(s). But I dunno how to do it in Debian ... is that what init is for?

If you are only used to RH and derivatives, then anything Debian will
seem a little strange. Debian.org and tldp.org are good sources of
info. The following link is a pretty thorough walk through of a guy
setting up his Debian Sarge box as a workstation:
