How to check FTP service failed in between on Solaris 10?

Hi Guys,

I need to check why FTP service on Solaris 10 machine did not work in between.

What does Jun-29 means here? Does it mean that it has been RUNNING/UP since Jun 29th ?

-bash-3.2$ sudo /usr/bin/svcs |grep -i ftp
legacy_run     Jun_29   lrc:/etc/rc3_d/S90proftpd
online         Jun_29   svc:/network/ftp:default
-bash-3.2$ 

How to check if it was not working during specific period?

Please advise.

Thanks.

The STIME field indicates the date or time, when the service entered the current state.

The strange thing here is, that you seem to have two FTP daemons running, the one which comes with Solaris, and ProFTP. Disable the one, you don't want to run.

List conflicting FTP packages with

pkginfo | grep -i ftp

One of them should be disabled.
The Solaris ftp (also a proftp) is started on demand by inetd, and is listed by both svcs and inetadm.
