RedHat7.1: Ftp Access.


Cannot Ftp to my machine? . Can anyone help please.
I had the same problem with telnet and solved it by running "setup" under /usr/sbin/ and checking off telnet under services.

Well.. provided you installed the FTP server, you can run the same setup program and turn on wu-ftpd so that the FTP server starts at boot.
Then you can restart the xinetd service to crank it up I believe.

service xinetd restart

( I think )

You'll also need to make sure that you don't have any firewalling that is blocking connections to the ftp ports (20/21) say an iptables rules. You won't by default be able to FTP are root either (you'd hope). If you do need to enable this (bad security move) then edit /etc/ftpusers and remove root's entry.
