How to configure FTP Server on HPUX 11.11

[saju_2]

Hi

HP-UX server comes with ftp server enabled. Pls Check the /etc/inetd.conf file and find the entry
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/ftpd ftpd -l

If this entry is there (and not hashed) and /usr/sbin/inetd is running try to ftp to that server. IT should accept FTP.

If it is not allowing check the /var/adm/inetd.sec file and check whether your client IP is blocked for FTP.

Hi Venkat;

By default FTP service will be enabled in hp unix, if no changes has made in inetd.conf file..

do the following steps..

# vi /etc/inetd.conf

Find a line start with ftp.. if the line is commented, uncomment it ( erase # )..

#inetd -c
Try to ftp ur local machine..
#ftp localhost ...

it should work fine..

cheers
