The answer is simple
Since, I complied tcpwrapper in /usr/local/tcp_wrapper-7.6 directory. It will
created a file "tcpd" in that directory. you SHOULD LEAVE IT THERE rather than
move "tcpd" file to other places. So the inetd.conf shoul be modified as below:
from
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/in.ftpd in.ftpd
to
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/tcp_wrapper7.6/tcpd
/usr/sbin/in.ftpd
then
kill -HUP PID
That is the solution.
