ftp server down?

[hcliff]

Installed as per the perfect setup, but having some issues with the FTP server, when trying to log in I get:

No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
Connection failed.

I've restarted ftp and inetd a couple of times to no avail.

Any help would be most welcome!

Maybe a firewall issue. Please post the output of:

netstat -tap

and

iptables -L
