The easiest way would be though your distribution -- check the install
media and/or see if it happens to be installed already. If you use an
RPM-based distro, I believe that 'rpm -q ftp' or ftpd or in.ftpd or
something will tell you if rpm thinks it's installed. You'll want to
verify that the executable is not present if rpm (or dpkg, if you run
Debian, or nothing if you run Slackware <g>) thinks it's
installed. "find / -name in.ftpd" or similar ("find / -name
'ftp*'"). If it actually isn't there, first uninstall it (if the
packaging system thinks you have it, so you can install it again: "rpm
-e ftpd" or whatever the package name is), and the find and install it
from your distribution media.

Bill,

I'm on Red Hat 6.1 (kernel 2.2.12-20), and when checking the rpm my ftp version was at ftp-0.15-1. I did a search of my whole directory structure for in.ftpd and could not find it. The ftp command was found in /usr/bin. So then I uninstalled ftp, and re-installed it and I was back to the starting point.

I have a feeling that the in.* scripts come as a part of the tcp_wrappers package. Is this true? If it is true, should I try and re-install tcp_wrappers.
This is my current version: tcp_wrappers-7.6-9

Could it be the way that I installed tcp_wrappers in the first place?

Thanks,
Luis
