hosts.allow is empty, hosts.deny has ALL: PARANOID. Both files are equal on 192.168.1.1 and 3. I amended hosts.allow with the line ALL: .orchard.nl (being my local domain name), but to no avail. I haven't installed the package ftpd, only ftp, but isn't ftp supposed to work right out of the box, being an essential service. 192.168.1.1 and 3 have basically the same setup, with 3 being a bit outdated (May this year) and 1 spanking brand new (last week). Another thing is that when I last used 3 with a ppp connection to the net I could easily ftp and run apt-get.
