I'm not sure about RedHat 2.1A but my Fedora Core 1 uses vsftpd. I can start it with:

/etc/init.d/vsftpd start

You may have /etc/xinetd.d/wuftpd

In that case you need to edit the wuftpd file and change disable = yes to no

Red Hat went to vsftp probably with your version.

check the files in /etc/xinetd.d

There is a file in there to enable ftp gssftp or something similar

make sure disable = no in this file

vsftp is no longer managed by the xinetd daemon, it is stopped/started and managed on its own.

service vsftpd start

chkconfig --level 12345 vsftptd on
# sets the system to start the service at boot.

RHEL 2.1 default ftp server is wu-ftpd, so

1) check if wu-ftpd is installed :

rpm -q wu-ftpd

2)

chkconfig wu-ftpd on
