I believe redhat 8.0 is using wu-ftp as the ftp daemon so to enable it....go to /etc/xinetd.d and there is a file called wu-ftpd. Edit the file using an editor (i like using pico) and change "disable=yes" to "disable=no". I don't believe u need to restart the xine service but just do it anywayz by:
"service xinetd restart"
Of course you have to be root to do this.
Now, to see if your ftp server is on do this:
"netstat -a | grep LISTEN"
This will tell you what services are listening for connection and if you see ftp in there...then your ftp server is up. You should see a line like this:
tcp 0 0 *:ftp *:* LISTEN
Hope that helps...
