You look in /etc/inetd.conf to make sure that the ftp line isn't
commented out. Then, you note the name of the program being called
to answer ftp requests, and make sure it's installed on your system.
Usually, it's referred to as in.ftpd. "find / -name in.ftpd" will
tell you if the file exists,
Also, you may want to take a look at /etc/hosts.allow and
/etc/hosts.deny to see if you've accidentally restricted your system
from connecting to itself.
