service ftp
{
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/local/sbin/vsftpd
nice = 10
disable = no

After I restart the server with
[root@CEEYFLC init.d]# ./xinetd restart
Stopping xinetd:
Starting xinetd:

I have a user account "rajk" on the unix host.
I am now at a Win2K host and start ftp client and try to login as user rajk
I am getting "530 Login incorrect Login Failed"

Try login as anonymous - Login successful but would not let me change to /tmp directory

What else needs to be done in the conf file to be able to use ftp ?. Please help

Hi,

Try backing up your file with a different name and try using this one. This is mine, and I am able to sftp into my machine no problem.

#Begin /etc/vsftp/vsftp.cnf

# Allow anonymous FTP? (Beware - allowed by default if you comment this out).
anonymous_enable=NO
# Uncomment this to allow local users to log in.

# Uncomment this to enable any form of FTP write command.
write_enable=YES
# Default umask for local users is 077. You may wish to change this to 022,
# if your users expect that (022 is used by most other ftpd's)

Dont know much about this, but it's worth a try. I bet the lines in the last potion are what you need, the "userlist_enable=YES" in particular.

Good luck,
