I am sure that there is one or more specific things that is impeding you from having a working ftp server. Please detail what you did and where you encountered issues.

I am looking for the the script location
where i can srart the vsftpd daemon in
red hat 9.0

Thanks

check /etc/init.d

look for vdftpd it should be in there.

If it is, you want to add it to your rcx.d runlevel.

I am assuming that you are running in text mode
rc3.d if it is in gui then rc5.d

You want to make a symlink to the script in init.d

cd to the appropiate rcx.d directory (/etc/rc3.d or /etc/rc5.d)

ln -s /etc/init.d/vsftpd S##vsftpd

*S## = Ssomenumber, I would add it towards the end, at least after your firewall and xinetd.

If you just want to start it manually,

cd /etc/init.d
./vsftpd

that's it.

Other then that, using the method in the previous post will start it automatically on boot up.
