I put the change in, however it still didn't fix it -- I did realize, however, that there was a change on the system so that now xinetd is managing the allow/deny lists...  however, when the hobbit server has !ftp - it goes red because ftp is on and when it has ftp it is yellow...

Thanks,
Adam

I have hobbit setup to check ftp status, and recently i have started getting yellow alerts with the following messages on the page:


    Mon Oct 17 15:24:18 2005 ftp NOT ok

Service ftp on [hostname edited out] is not OK : Unexpected service response
   
I had a Windows based ftp server which shut down the connection
immediately when Hobbit sent the "quit" command - before it was done
sending the initial "200 Ok" greeting, resulting in this problem.

Could you try changing the "ftp" in bb-hosts to "ftp:s" and see if
that makes the problem go away ?
