I ran into this exact same problem!!!! Extremely frustrating!!!
Unfortunately, this was about 6 months ago, and, of course, I didn't
document the solution.... (I'm always meaning to get around to
that....<grin>...) However, I seem to remember that my problem was with
/etc/inetd.conf.... The following is my line from this file regarding ftp
services:
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd
/usr/sbin/wu-ftpd -a -d
Of course, I have wu-ftpd installed....
I hope this helps.... When I had this problem, putting the question to
this mailing list provided lots of suggestions, but, unfortunately, none of
them helped.... I even tried deinstalling and reinstalling the ftpd
packages, but that didn't help either.
Anyway, good luck.
