Topic: glftpd 1.22 & e-smith problems?!

[Adam Meghji]

Hi.  

I'm having problems getting glftpd 1.22 working with e-smith 4.0 (based on rh6.1).  I'm trying to move an ftp site onto this new gateway, but I'm having problems getting glftpd to respond.  I'm not sure if it's an e-smith issue, a config issue, or a glftpd issue.

I have glftpd running through rlinetd.conf, here's my entry:
service "glftpd"
{
        protocol tcp;
        user "root";
        server "/usr/sbin/tcpd";
        exec "/glftpd/bin/glftpd -l -o -i";
}

when I try to ftp to the site, I get the following message:
[root@CR824463-A /]# ftp localhost 8000
Connected to localhost.
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection

I'm using the default glftpd.conf file located in /etc, the latest libc6 binaries, and I've run through the documentation several times. I'm basically at a loss.  Does anyone have any advice/tips?  anyone gotten glftpd working on e-smith?  

Feedback appreciated,

Please repost your question on the Advanced Forum - a place we set aside for discussions about modifications and customisations. You're likely to get more help there.
