ftp 'server'

[Nick Oleksinski]

Hi:
I'm trying to telnet into my linux box (IBM ThinkPad 570) but I keep
getting the following message:

l2a1532 tcsh[333]$ ftp wmpc75
Connected to wmpc75.
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection

Is this a case where I've got a switch thrown somewhere that 'shuts off'
ftp into the box or do I need to install some sort of ftp daemon to
allow it?
If it's a switch, how do I turn it off?  If I need a new rpm installed
(I'm running RedHat 6.1) does anyone have a recommendation for what
packages to install?
Thanks,
Nick Oleksinski
