FTP Problem

[Dom2FR]

Since the 9.0 version, i have a problem with the ftp accounts.
Proftp is down.

I've try this command : /etc/init.d/xinetd restart
but unsuccessfully

Can you ftp to the localhost? If not can you check to see that /etc/xinetd.d/ftp_psa is there and that it contains:

service ftp
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
instances = UNLIMITED
server = /usr/sbin/in.proftpd
server_args = -c /etc/proftpd.conf
}

localhost ftp works, indeed.

Check your firewall rules in the GUI and also via the command line iptables. You should also check netstat to see what IP addresses are being used to listen on on port 20 and 21.

It is possible that xinetd is not listening to the correct ip addresses (public) or that you have firewall rules blocking access to the service.

I have a "Connection Refused" when i try to connect (from another machines)
Firewall Rules are correct.

How can i check the ip adresses listening by xinetd ?

Regards.

netstat will provide the listening ports - "netstat -anp" will show a lot of information. Look for the lines with the word "listening".
