look /etc/xinetd.d/wu-ftpd or other ftp program file under /etc/xinetd

open that file and change DISABLE directive value to no

then type

/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart

when you add ftp user, if you dont want that user make telnet or ssh to the system then type the following when creating the user..

useradd ftpuser1 -d /www/ftpuser1_dir -s /sbin/nologin

Send a message via AIM to UFSS Send a message via MSN to UFSS
also be sure to password your users and be sure to check permissions.
to password users use the following command:
passwd 'user'
then it will aks for the password
