Great Find! The chkconfig command will definitely be of use. Well I was able
to get vsftpd working with out an issue on the box I intended it to go on.
But I didn't use xinetd but rather started it up with the init.d script. I
configured it and got it to do everything I needed. 

I went back to the other box to see whats up with it not working correctly
with xinitd with the information I have picked up from this thread thus far.
It just seems like it would not read the config file. But testing it right
now, the darn thing seems to be running.

So I have set up one box running it from init.d and another box running it
from xinetd. Thing is, I don't know exactly what I changed or did different
on the xinitd box! I did a "chkconfig --level 2345 vsftpd off" on this box,
but it was already at:

vsftpd          0:off   1:off   2:off   3:off   4:off   5:off   6:off

When I did it, basically I did it just to see it do it.


Heres what I see when logged in to both boxes running vsftpd with two users
logged in:

Initd box:

root      4158  0.0  0.0  3648  496 ?        S    Mar17   0:00
/usr/sbin/vsftpd /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
nobody    4296  0.0  0.0  3712  776 ?        S    02:04   0:00
/usr/sbin/vsftpd /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
heck1     4298  0.0  0.0  3736  800 ?        S    02:04   0:00

nobody    4299  0.0  0.0  3712  776 ?        S    02:04   0:00

504       4301  0.0  0.0  3736  800 ?        S    02:04   0:00
/usr/sbin/vsftpd /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf


Xinitd box:

root      3099  0.0  0.3  3308  496 ?        S    Mar18   0:00
/usr/sbin/vsftpd /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
nobody    6520  0.0  0.6  3372  812 ?        S    01:12   0:00
/usr/sbin/vsftpd /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
heck1     6522  0.0  0.6  3396  832 ?        S    01:13   0:00
/usr/sbin/vsftpd /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
nobody    6523  0.1  0.6  3372  776 ?        S    01:13   0:00
/usr/sbin/vsftpd /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
502       6525  0.0  0.6  3396  848 ?        S    01:13   0:00
/usr/sbin/vsftpd /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf



QUESTION: the nobody account, I assume that's like the IUSR account on a
windows box or just some service account? Also, on both boxes it seems one
of the users I logged into isnt listed by name but by a number. The 504, and
502, WHY IS THAT?


Thanks!
