https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-hp-ux/proftpd-start-at-boot-time/m-p/4381433#M535337 If you put proftpd in /etc/inetd.conf, the daemon does not start during boot up. It gets started by inetd whenever there is an ftp connection to your server. If you want to run proftp as a standalone daemon you need to create a start up file for it and take it out from inetd.conf. <BR /><BR />Have you tried connecting to your server via ftp? You might connect up fine to it.

I also configured the proftpd in /etc/inetd.conf file. I want that when my server reboots this daemon could come up automatically.<BR /><BR />Please suggest ..<BR /><BR />Regards,<BR />Amit Tue, 17 Mar 2009 16:01:24 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-hp-ux/proftpd-start-at-boot-time/m-p/4381432#M535336 astra 2009-03-17T16:01:24Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-hp-ux/proftpd-start-at-boot-time/m-p/4381433#M535337 If you put proftpd in /etc/inetd.conf, the daemon does not start during boot up.
