Here is how you do it:
1) Modify the /etc/proftpd.conf file to have the following:
ServerType inetd
Then modify your ftp line in your /etc/inetd.conf file:
ftp stream ftp nowait root /usr/sbin/in.proftpd in.proftpd
Then restart your inetd daemon. If you did not startup the process you
will need to do this:
Startup the inetd service
cygrunsrv -I inetd -d "CYGWIN inetd" -p /usr/sbin/inetd -a -d -e CYGWIN=ntsec
cygrunsrv -S inetd
If it still does not run check the /var/log/messages to see what errors
you have trying to connect to the ftp server. Most likely the
/etc/proftpd.conf file needs to be modified.
Enjoy,
Russell
