Subject: Re: [expert] ftpd gives "connection refused"



first check wu-ftpd

rpm -V wu-ftpd

Then inetd
rpm -V netkit-base

for any major problems

now make sure ftp is enabled in inetd.conf
grep ftp /etc/inetd.conf|grep -v -q \#ftp
Should return blank

now make sure inetd is running
/etc/rc.d/init.d/inetd status

if it's not working by now, check the port is being listened to
netstat -ln|grep ':22'

and that ipchains isn't blocking it
ipchains -L -nvx |grep ':22'
