Index of Subjects --=====_95546429941=_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable greetings, I believe the conversation I was having with Sysphrog didn't say anything about removing the tcpd from the inetd.conf. He was simply saying that it is probably best to create a symlink in /usr/sbin for the ftpd client (wherever it may be) because that is where tcpd will look for it. He says you could give it the path like so: /usr/sbin/tcpd /csuite/etc/ftpd/ftpd -l -a but that it is safer to put a symlink in /usr/sbin for the ftpd. This then generated quite abit of arguing from various other unix people :) I will attach the capture, it may be amusing to some, and definitely explain the issue more accurately.
