Step 4: Restart the Super Daemon

Now we restart the inetd super daemon.

/etc/rc.d/rc.inetd restart

Step 5: Test the FTP server

Finally to test the ftp server we simply open another terminal window as one of the listed users and run the following commands. it is also a good idea to repeat this test for a non listed user to ensure our settings are working as expected

$ ftp
ftp> open
(to) example.org
Connected to example.org.

Thats it, happy ftp'ing
