You need to have an ftp server load at bootup. RH 8.0 has a few to choose from. You just need to pick the one you want.

/etc/init.d/ftpd start (or something like that) should do it.

For startup at boot create a link in /etc/rc[3-5].d called S80ftpd going to /etc/init.d/ftpd and links in /etc/rc[1-2].d called K80ftpd going to /etc/init.d/ftpd
