Plesk 12 and Proftpd -- how to restrict listening on only 1 IP

[Groo]

Hi,

This should be simple but I've tried:

- Adding to /etc/proftpd.conf:

DefaultAddress 1.2.3.4

- Adding to /etc/xinetd.d/ftp_psa:

bind = 1.2.3.4

....it still keeps binding to every IP on the box and I can't figure out why.

CentOS 7 (if that matters). Thanks.

I have just changed /etc/xinetd.d/ftp_psa to something like:

service ftp
{
disable = no
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/proftpd
log_on_success += DURATION USERID
log_on_failure += USERID
nice = 10
bind = [IP to bind to]
}

And binding works fine after that.

My default had flags = IPV6 if I change that to flags = REUSE then the BIND = actually works.

If I do flags = REUSE IPV6 then it does not work.

Which is confusing because...

"The REUSE flag is deprecated. All services now implicitly use the REUSE flag."

Either way I'm happy it works now thanks!
