[dhamodharan_1]

Team,

I am using Red Hat EL4 , I have changed the display=no in /etc/xinetd.d/tftp , but i cann't able to do ftp. How to solve this issue.


Thanks

It should be disable=no, and tftp is not the ftp server, to enable the ftp server use:

service vsftpd start
chkconfig vsftpd on

You cannot access with root for security reasons, use another user account.

I have applied your steps but iam getting the result given below
[root@localhost ~]# service vsftpd start
vsftpd: unrecognized service
[root@localhost ~]# chkconfig vsftpd on
error reading information on service vsftpd: No such file or directory
[root@localhost ~]#

You don't have installed the package, use system-config-packages to add the ftp server, or find the vsftpd rpm package in the cdrom and run:

rpm -ivh vsftpd-.rpm

Then run again the commands above.
