thanks for suggetation
but i have RHEL 4.0
How can i install ftp server
Please help me
Thanks ..........
try this
The rpm file should be present in the cd pack it would be eaiser for us if u check the /var/log/messages ..
and can help u along wid tht ..
the best way i can suggest u is try to make a copy of all rpm in a single directory (this will use ur lot of hdd space but can be used as an repository for all rpm.) then after puutin all rpm in single directory use --force and --aid option with rpm command
ie
rpm -ivh --force --aid ftp*
probally this wil work

Not having a RHEL system on hand, I would recommed doing a:
up2date -i vsftpd
