Looks like it is.

I tried to run /usr/sbin/in.ftpd explicitly (using the command from
/etc/inetd.conf), but it wouldn't "stick" - it doesn't show up in ps -ef
afterwards:
[root@paarestad pma]# /usr/sbin/tcpd in.ftpd -l -a
[root@paarestad pma]# ps -ef | grep ftpd
root 7762 7746 0 22:44 pts/0 00:00:00 grep ftpd
[root@paarestad pma]#
And when I try to just do a straight-up ftp:
[pma@paarestad rc5.d]$ ftp localhost
Connected to localhost.localdomain.
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection
ftp>
There is an ftp line in /etc/inetd.conf:
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.ftpd -l -a
Any other config files I should check?
