Hi Mike,
Thanks for your help, but I still cannot get it to work. I created the RHN ID and ran up2date wu-ftp anon-ftp and I get a message that says the packages you have selected are not available. I tried from command line and from the GUI interface in Gnome. I also did a find command for ftp from / find / -name *ftp* -print I have attached the results in the txt file. If you could take a look and see if something in there can help me thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Mike Burger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 23, 2002 5:31 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: FTP Issues You don't ahve an ftp server installed, at all. If you did, you'd have wu-ftpd or pro-ftpd (the two options that come for installation). You'll need to install one of them, first, and then, if you really need anonymous ftp, you'll also need to install the anon-ftp rpm. Have you configured your RHN/Up2date account, yet? If so, just "up2date wu-ftpd anon-ftp", then run "chkconfig wu-ftp on" On Tue, 23 Apr 2002 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > when I run this I get > > gftp-2.0.8-2 > ftp-0.17-12 > ncftp-3.0.3-6 > > Went to check the settings for FTP in the /etc/xinetd.d directory and all I > have in there is > chargen, chargen-udp daytime, daytime-udp, echo, echo-udp, rsync, time, > time-udp, sgi_fam, > > There is no FTP there???? > > -----Original Message----- > From: Mike Burger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, April 23, 2002 4:08 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: FTP Issues > > > What do you get from a "rpm -qa | grep ftp"? > > On Tue, 23 Apr 2002 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > did this it returns > > > > error reading information on service wu-ftp: No such file or directory > > > > also tried chkconfig ftp on and get samething but it specifies ftp > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Mike Burger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: Tuesday, April 23, 2002 3:25 PM > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: Re: FTP Issues > > > > > > It's probably already there.
