http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inetd Edit /etc/inetd.conf file, comment lines that enable ftp server and restart inetd daemon (invoke-rc.d ...), check with netstat -laptn that no program uses TCP/21, and then start your FTP server. Another solution is to remove inetd package, if you really don't use it. Regards. Yann. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
