Unable to ftp login after configuring proftp

[Anish Nayyar]

I have installed proftpd 1.3 on my server. Then I configured it with some options and user and group. when I tried ftp to that server it showed error:-

Connected to 10.3.10.51.
Connection closed by remote host.

and when I reverted the changes in file /etc/inetd.conf then again I am able to ftp login on the server.

what is the cause that I am not able to ftp login with proftpd configurations on the server.

did u made any changes in inetd.conf file
if u changed u have to start with the command inetd -c command

Shalom,

Well, based on the evidence presented, I would say you made a mistake in the proftpd configuration.

Perhaps you could post a brief log entry so myself or others can provide a clue to whats going on.
