Hi,
my gentoo desktop was working fine for quite sometime. I used to ftp from
outside as well as from inside my firewall. But, recently I did an emerge -u
world and after that I can not connect via ftp. I'm using proftpd with
xinetd.

When I run it thru xinetd and try to connect, I get

ftp localhost
Connected to localhost.
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection


If I disable proftpd from xinetd and run it standalone thru
/etc/init.d/proftpd, ftp works fine from within the firewall. However, I can
only connect to it from outside but can not do a ls or get or anything.
Here's what I get form outside

Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.
ftp> ls
227 Entering Passive Mode (192,168,0,3,254,152).
ftp: connect: No route to host

How can I fix it?
thanks for your help

Regards
R'twick

here's my proftpd.conf file if there's something wrong
