Don't change the default ftp port number in /etc/services -- instead
add your own line, eg:

    mycustomftp    6021/tcp

Then add a line lie so into /etc/inetd.conf:

    mycustomftp    stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/libexec/ftpd       =
ftpd -l

and restart inetd:

    # kill -HUP `cat /var/run/inetd.pid`

Note that this may well result in port 6020 being used for the FTP
data channel -- you'll need to make sure your firewall rules permit
that.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
