The basic idea is to comment out the ftp entry in /etc/inetd.conf then cause inetd to reread its configuration or: $ sed 's/^ftp/\#ftp/' /etc/inetd.conf > /etc/inetd.new # Comment out ftp entry in /etc/inetd.conf $ mv /etc/inetd.new /etc/inetd.conf # Move new file into place $ net stop inetd # Stop inetd $ net start inetd # Restart inetd Note that you could also send a sighup to the inetd to cause it to reread it's configuration (of course there are two inetd processes running and I'm not sure if you need to send the sighup to both or not). -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
