Hello

Here is netstat -tap:

Hello

I have been able to solve my problem.

In the tutorial http://www.howtoforge.org/virtual-ho...n-debian-lenny
on page 2 it says:
"Next, we modify /etc/inetd.conf and comment out the ftp line:

[...]
#:STANDARD: These are standard services.
#ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-wrapper
[...]"

I did not notice that there were 2 identical lines:
"#:STANDARD: These are standard services.
#Ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-wrapper
#ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-wrapper
"

So I just commented out one line, not both.

After waiting all day I decided to uninstall pure-ftpd-mysql and start over. When I noticed the 2 lines I commented the second line out. When I tried to restart pure-ftpd-mysql, EUREKA it started up!!!

I have everything working as it should.

Thank you
