Re: Regarding the FTP
As yourself identified, make sure that the users shell is listed in /etc/shells file. If not add the shell into /etc/shells.
ftpd daemon will accept the ftp connections only if the user shell is exist on /etc/shells file
Note that ftp access will be given to all the user by default.
If you could provide the error you are getting we can help you better.

Re: Regarding the FTP
FTP
=====
1) Chek /etc/inetd.conf file for the following entry,
#ftp stream tcp6 nowait root /usr/lbin/ftpd ftpd -l
If # is there, remove it for enabling the port and restart the inetd by
#inetd -c
2) Check entry in /etc/ftpd/ftpusers file for checking any restriction for users.

Yes.
>>"/bin/ftpshell" type of shells is there in that /etc/shell file.

Probably /bin/ftpshell could be a customized shell which will allow only ftp connections.
You can use any shell like inbuilt shell or customized shell. But the shell should be listed in /etc/shells.
See "man shells" for more details

Re: Regarding the FTP
Hi unixguy,
do an FTP from the server to itself.
#ftp 0
Check does this work fine...?
enable the inetd logging in using inetd -l command and check the syslog entries after trying to do an FTP to the server.
Paste here the error message you are getting.

Re: Regarding the FTP
Are you getting the ftp prompt ?
if not then 1st login to the box and try to do a ftp into local host then you will know ftp is open or not in your server.

Re: Regarding the FTP
This is not a useful problem description. It
does not say what you did or what happened
when you did it.

> Are you getting the ftp prompt ?
Perhaps there's a reason that everyone is
asking for the same information. Is there
some reason that you're not giving it?

Re: Regarding the FTP
Is it possible that you can not ftp to that box, because your network person has blocked the ftp port so nothing (from anywhere) can ftp to the box, or maybe just from the IP range your coming from?
Try ftp-ing from a different subnet to that box and see what you get.
Or try asking the network guy if they maybe got over zealous with doing some port security tasks.
Like I said, just a thought,
