Thanks for the overwhelming responses, summarized as below
How to enable root ftp to solaris 9 server ?
#vi /etc/services - uncomment
-> ftp 21/tcp
#vi /etc/inetd.conf - uncomment
-> ftp stream tcp nowail root /usr/sbin/in.ftpd in.ftpd
# vi /etc/ftpd/ftpuser - to uncomment "root" out
-> # root
#vi /etc/shells - put in all the shell as possible
-> /usr/sbin/ksh
#vi /etc/default/login - to uncomment
-> CONSOLE=/dev/console
check ftp.allow and ftp.deny files as well
#kill -HUP <inetd>pid - to restart #/usr/sbin/inetd -s
A lot of responses suggested using more secure ftp like
proftp/ssh/scp/sftp or normal user to ftp in then #sudo - root
cheers...
Robert
