I'm telling you do this--

rpm -ivh --replacepkgs --replacefiles *ftp*.rpm
of course make sure you have the rpms first.. you can get them from
redhat.com.


This will save a lot of problems. I had the same exact problem as you and
this fixed it.. if you still have problems reinstall tcpwrappers.  You have
nothing to lose..  Also unless you have DNS running correctly or have a host
entry in your hosts file, stick with using IP numbers. At least untill you
get ftp to work.

Still working on my FTP server. Thanks to those who have given me some
answers, but I'm still having problems. Being the newbie that I am, that
CAN'T be the problem. Anyway, here's what I have

rpm -qa|grep ftp

ftp-0.16.3
gftp-2.0.6a-3
ncftp-3.0beta21.4
anonftp-2.3-4
wu-ftpd-2.6.0-3

When I enter ftp "machine name" at the console running ftp, the error is
"connection refused". This would seem to indicate that I have an access
problem. I edited the ftphost and ftp access files, but still the same
problem. When I go to another machine and enter "ftp "machine name"" I get
the error message "Unknown host" which would indicate another problem. What
gives?
