Hi -

Not sure if this is the correct forum to ask this question ... I hope it is ok.
I am haveing an issue that I see a few other people have had also, but I have yet to get mine resolved. I have setup glftpd 2.0 beta, and I have checked the setup and it seems ok. But whenever I try to connect to the service I get this:

[root@localhost /]# ftp localhost 444
Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1)
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection

I can see that it is connecting, but seems the service is not running ?

Here is some of my info:

Fedora Core 2
glFTPd 2.0 B1

/etc/hosts.allow
#
# hosts.allow This file describes the names of the hosts which are
# allowed to use the local INET services, as decided
# by the '/usr/sbin/tcpd' server.
#
# Only allow connections within the virginia.edu domain.

GLFTPD: ALL


/etc/hosts.deny is EMPTY

/etc/xinetd.conf
#
# Simple configuration file for xinetd
#
# Some defaults, and include /etc/xinetd.d/

service glftpd
{
disable = no
flags = REUSE NAMEINARGS
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/tcpd
server_args = /glftpd/bin/glftpd -l -o -i -n 0
}

defaults
{
instances = 60
log_type = SYSLOG authpriv
log_on_success = HOST PID
log_on_failure = HOST
cps = 25 30
}

includedir /etc/xinetd.d


/etc/services
# Local services
glftpd 444/tcp # glftpd
=============================

I see no errors in the system log or in the gl logs.

PLease help me with this as I have been trying to get this fixed for many days now : /

Thank you
J

LiNUXG33K: Did you ever get a reply, perhaps privately? I have the same problem but can't actually find that many postings about this problem.

I installed both 1.25 and 1.26 beta and did everything according to their docs but.. 421.

Since you're getting a 421 error the server itself is replying. What about your glftpd.conf? Do you have a "shutdown" line in it? If so comment it out.
