Hello everybody!
Last week I wanted to send a friend of mine some files, so I decided to set up an ftp-server and I tried pureFtp beacause of its nice GUI.
Unfortunately it didn't work at all (login worked, but there was zero traffic), so I decided to uninstall it again.

The problem is that pureFtp must have altered my system files and now OS X's built in ftp-server is not working anymore.

Does anybody have a quick solution on how to fix that problem (without reinstalling tiger)?
I figured out it probably has something to do with these "/etc/xinetd" files, but don't know UNIX too well!

Thanks!


EDIT:

I love OS X!
I don't know how it happened, but the problem seems to have solved itself!

I swear that the last time I tried, the ftp-server would not run!
Now it just works again!
