[olug] FTP server

[David Walker]

List all installed packages with ftp in the title
rpm -qa|grep ftp

List all service scripts with ftp in the title
ls -al /etc/rc.d/init.d/*ftp*

service name_of_ftp_service_script status
service name_of_ftp_service_script start


However I recommend ssh and scp.  It covers all my need, is more secure, and 
is easier to secure through a firewall.
