Hi

Yes.  The system ships with a /etc/hosts.allow (which I copied to =
hosts_allow)which it claims is used by the wrapping service in inetd.  I =
turned off -wW on inetd so that that file would not matter.  Telnet then =
started to work.  But not ftp.  So I got rid of ftp altogether in inetd. =
You don't need to start ftpd through inetd.  I start ftpd with a -D now for =

daemon use and it still gives the same problem.

Thanks
Chad
