Sorry, I should have asked for the output of netstat -a please post this output. Thanks. Then we'll discuss. Neo

I know it's been a billion years since you posted your /etc/ftpaccess file. However here is mine. If mine works and your's doesn't, maybe you can figure it out from the diff (from wu-ftp.org by the way):

class all real,guest,anonymous *



limit all 10 Any /etc/msgs/msg.dead



readme README* login

readme README* cwd=*



message /welcome.msg login

message .message cwd=*



compress yes all

tar yes all



log commands real

log transfers anonymous,real inbound,outbound



shutdown /etc/shutmsg



email user@hostname

Tony, I'm looking at that now, I just know this is something simple, something not set up right, its just driving me nuts trying to figure it out.

Thanks. I just wanted to verify that your ftp process was actually listening. It is, you can see it in this line of your output:

Quote:
tcp 0 0 *:ftp *:* LISTEN
Sounds like either:

(1) An ftpaccess file problem or

(2) Your ftp process is wrapped with a process, (like identd), that is checking DNS (or similar) to authenticate the network connection.

Again, I would suggest that you look for logfiles to see what ftp error messages you might be getting.

Could you post your ftp entry in inetd.conf ?

Neo: I've tweaked the ftpaccess file, made it look like tony's above and still not working, i've checked the passwd file (but it works for telnet, just not ftp).

Ok, notice that in inetd.conf you have two flags after ftpd, the -l and -a flags. From the man page:

Quote:
-a Connections are only allowed for users who can authenticate (via the ftp AUTH mechanism) and who are authorized to connect to the named account without a password. (Anonymous ftp may also be allowed if it is configured.)
Quote:
-l Each ftp(1) session is logged in the syslog.

Based on your inetd.conf configuration, you should have ftp logfile entries in your syslog file. If you don't know where those files are (or if it is working properly), please post the contents of your /etc/syslog.conf file.

Before you do that, you might consider editing your inetd.conf ftp entry as follows:

Quote:
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.ftpd
In other words, get rid of the -l and -a flags (temporarily, to troubleshoot).

Don't forget to restart inetd with something like:

Quote:
killall -1 inetd
