How do you start an FTP server program ?
This might be a silly question , but it is
something for which I have no answer.

In our server , we faced a two-fold problem :
o  One that we could not log-in as any user.This I solved
   by entering single-user mode (on rebooting after we knew
   something was wrong).
o  The second thing is we can not ftp  onto our server !
   This has to mean that the FTP server program , was :
   - either corrupted
   - or not installed
   - or mysteriously  un-installed
   We settled for the first reason , because  /usr/sbin/in.ftpd
   existed.

   Now I tried /usr/sbin/in.ftpd -S which is supposed to make the daemon
   run.But when I did a
   ps -A|less   or   ps -A|grep in.ftpd

   I did not find any semblance to ftp among the processes displayed.

Please help me out. My problem is extermely urgent.

Thanks in advance,
Shyam
