40.3. Running ProFTPD from inetd or xinetd
Setting up ProFTPD to run from a super server isn't too hard either, and may be a good idea if your system is low on memory or hardly ever receives FTP connections. Before you can do this, you must kill any existing proftpd server process (easily done with the Running Processes module), and disable or delete any action that starts it at boot time.
If your system uses the superior xinetd, follow these instructions to set up the FTP service. Because many packages include an /etc/xinetd.d configuration file for the server, some of the fields explained below may already be filled in correctly.
