Disable anonymous ftp in Solaris 10

807557Jan 15 2009 — edited Jan 16 2009
Hello,

I am trying to disable anonymous ftp on a solaris 10 server, but am having great difficulty.

I have tried adding the line 'guestserver' to /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess - this did not work.
There is no ftp account present in /etc/passwd
The inetd.conf entry for ftp is 'ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/in.ftpd in.ftpd'
I have even tried adding 'anonymous' to the /etc/ftpd/ftpusers file

Anyone know how to shut anonymous ftp off, in a clean manner?
