'bind' in this case is the bind system call, not the BIND package. Its program
is called 'named' anyway.

It's saying that the port for FTP is already being used. An FTP daemon is trying
to start from inetd, perhaps you've already got one started?

Either remove/disable this entry in your /etc/inetd.conf or stop the other
daemon from starting.
