Edit /etc/xinetd.d/ftp as root, changing "disable = yes" to "disable = no"
Then restart xinetd:
sudo kill -1 `cat /var/run/xinetd.pid`
Of course, if you have ssh on, you could just use sftp. It's more secure anyway.

If you already have sshd running, then you hafe an sftp server running too. So there is no need for you to run a seperate ftp server. Unless of course you don't have an sftp client...

you shouldn't turn on insecure ftp when you can use either sftp or scp.
if you have ssh running on the remote computer then from a command line you can "sftp" into your computer, or alternatively you can use the command "scp" from the local computer.
but hey, whatever floats your boat.
