'allo,

    i have gotten a succesful compilation and install of wu-ftpd 2.4 under
solaris-2.3 and am now having problems that are i guess inetd related.

here's the entry from my inetd.conf file:

   ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /opt/etc/ftpd   ftpd

everytime i do an ftp to ftp.neirl.org i get the following:

prompt%  ftp reg-lab
Connected to reg-lab.
220 
Name (reg-lab:mehul): <i do a CR here>
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection
Login failed.
ftp> bye

why am i getting this ?? 

my daemon is located in /usr/local/etc (/usr/local is symbolic link to /opt)
my config files for it are also in the same directory.

could someone help ASAP as i need to have this running by morning.

tia,

  mehul
