rpm -qa |grep vsftp

If not, yum install vsftpd

Config File:		/etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf

Init script:		/etc/init.d/vsftpd start | stop | restart

Enable in runlevels:	chkconfig vsftpd on
				chkconfig --list vsftpd

More Help:			man vsftpd.conf

-on white box
-the man page for ftpd doesn't spell out a command or a configuration file,
though it suggests xinetd and services.
-Information for xinetd and services doesn't yield, either.

-what command to use to start (and stop) ftpd?
-in which conf file to put such a command (or corresponding specifications)?
