Has anyone experienced this before?:
[root@tux350 /root]# ftp localhost
Connected to localhost.localdomain.
Then, 1 and a half minutes later (this delay is consistent):
220 tux350.reisersun FTP server (Version wu-2.6.1(1) Tue Oct 3 14:29:19 CEST
2000) ready.
Name (localhost:root):
Then, I can login just fine (to localhost of course, which is also
"tux350.reisersun").
But I shouldn't have to wait 1.5 minutes just to get the login prompt!
I am using the defaults for /etc/xinetd.d/wu-ftpd, which are (in LM 7.2):
# default: on
# description: The wu-ftpd FTP server serves FTP connections. It uses \
# normal, unencrypted usernames and passwords for authentication.
service ftp
{
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.ftpd
server_args = -l -a
log_on_success += DURATION USERID
log_on_failure += USERID
nice = 10
}
What is wrong? How can I speed up ftp?
Please do not suggest that I use proftpd or some other alternative :)
I want to know what is wrong with my current config before I change to a
better ftp server!
Thanks in advance,
George
