RE: inetd anonymous ftp access

[Vince Hoffman <Vince dot Hoffman at uk dot circle dot com>]

oops ok try the instructions in
/usr/doc/Cygwin/inetutils/inetutils-1.3.2.README
this worked for me (although i had to (briefly) enable the guest account and
modify the /etc/passwd entry as my security setting wouldnt allow my ftp
user to have a blank password ;)
