Ooops, you're right...
You can try reading tcpd(8) (look for the PARANOID wildcard), but you may
have to rebuild tcpd for that.... If you give up on tcpd (I would, if
you are REALLY running in a protected intranet) - find a line looking like
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.ftpd -l -a
in /etc/inetd.conf (or /etc/xinetd.d/* in some newer distributions), and
remove the tcpd:
ftp stream tcp nowait root in.ftpd -l -a
