Distributor ID: OracleVMserver
Description:    Oracle VM server release 2.2.0
Release:        2.2.0
Codename:       n/a 

When i run

output is 
ftp: unrecognized service 
How would i install FTP ? Do i need to install ftp server or client?

Where would i get suitable ftp server/client for my distribution.
