Worse comes to worse, try:
# vi /etc/xinetd.d/wu-ftpd
service ftp
{
disable = yes
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.ftpd
server_args = -l -a
log_on_success += DURATION USERID
log_on_failure += USERID
nice = 10
}
** Change disable to = no
Then
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart
ftp away.
THEN DISABLE wu-ftpd and restart xinetd. You don't want to leave wu-ftpd up.
