Just got a new cpanel server. The first thing I normally do is set up hosts.allow and hosts.deny. I have done this already and restarted xineted.

Everything works as it should for ssh [telnet already disabled], but I can still ftp unrestricted as proftpd is the server.

I added this to /etc/inited.conf


#ftp
ftp stream tcp nowait root in.proftpd in.proftpd

Are there additional steps I have to do to make proftpd run via inetd?

got it!

why was I trying to edit ineted.conf when we use xinetd!

all sorted now . . .
