I don't know what it changed in the rc.config, or anywhere else, but I
enabled proftpd in YaST and edited proftpd.conf as standalone and it
didn't work. I disabled it in YaST, edited proftpd.conf back to inetd,
opened inetd.conf, disabled ftp, saved, restarted inetd, opened
inetd.conf,
enabled ftp, saved, restarted inetd, and it worked!
Must have hammered something somewhere, but it's up now. Thanks, Jack.
