dear friends

i am trying to replace my existing wu-ftp with proftp

for that i have done following steps

1. uninstall the existing wu-ftp using rpm -e

2. installed proftpd rpm in follwoig sequence

  rpm -Uvh proftpd-1.2.5rc1-1.i386.rpm
  rpm -Uvh proftpd-standalone-1.2.5rc1-1.i386.rpm
  rpm -Uvh proftpd-inetd-mysql-1.2.5rc1-1.i386.rpm

3. now i added a proftpd file in /etc/xinet.d/ dir
and placed

service proftp
{
         disable = no
         socket_type             = stream
         wait                    = no
         user                    = root
         server                  = /usr/sbin/in.proftpd
         server_args             =
         log_on_success          += DURATION USERID
         log_on_failure          += USERID
         nice                    = 10
}

in it . and then restarted xinetd


4 .now nmap shows that server is accepting connections
  at prot 21 for ftp

but when i try  to connect to server with ftp
it says

$telnet localhost 21

Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host

and connection gets closed

where i am making a mistake  or what more i need to do
,pls point out

pls give some ponters to study more about instalation
process of pro-ftpd

with regards

shubh
