On new server mostly,we are not able to connect FTP.In that case refer following steps.
Loin in to server as root user and check logs while connection FTP
[root@server]# tail -f /var/log/messages
Mar 22 00:39:15 server proftpd[14539]: server.localhost.com – Failed binding to ::, port 21: Address already in use
Mar 22 00:39:15 server proftpd[14539]: server.localhost.com – Check the ServerType directive to ensure you are configured correctly.
Mar 22 00:39:15 server xinetd[14353]: EXIT: ftp status=0 pid=14538 duration=0(sec)
Open file proftpd.conf
[root@server]# nano /etc/proftpd.conf
Replace following line from
ServerType standalone
To
ServerType inetd
Now restart the xinit service.
/etc/init.d/xinetd restart
Or
service xinetd restart
After restarting xinit service try to connect FTP from command line.
