OK, I have followed your suggestion and setup everything for /usr/bin,
instead of /bin .

Yes, I copied them there from /usr/bin .

It works neither way.

I thought it were a problem with the options for ftpd in inetd.conf . I
hadn't set the -a flag. But now I have (and killed -HUP the inetd), and it
still doesn't work.

/etc/inetd.conf :

ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/local/libexec/ftpd ftpd -a
