how to startup ftp services for knoppix 4.02

[cli168]

I would like to startup ftp services, just like the ssh on knoppix. Please show me how to do this.

Thanks.

There is (of course) more than one way to do it...

Open a console, become root and
<code>
apt-get install vsftpd
</code>

Then read the man page for vsftpd.conf and edit /etc/vsftpd.conf to your liking.
Restart vsftpd:
<code>
/etc/init.d/vsftpd stop
/etc/init.d/vsftpd start
</code>

You will probably also want to edit /etc/hosts.{allow|deny} in order to limit acces to
your box. See "man hosts_access".
