A bit more experience, a few more details:
To try to pinpoint whether the smp code was involved, I read the SMP HOWTO, then built a non-smp 2.4.22 kernel (make mrproper; copy in prior .config file and deselect smp with make menuconfig; make bzImage; make modules; make modules_install; plus appropriate LILO steps). The SMP HOWTO suggests this should have worked. However the resulting kernel panics.
Call employee closer to office (I'm remote) to go in and reboot to working 2.4.20 (smp) kernel (after confirming panic). Surprisingly, now active ftp is working on both lines.
The machine has been rebooted before - although only a half-dozen times since the active ftp problem became apparent - and the second-line active ftp failure has been consistent. What could happen only sometimes in bootup that would enable/disable it? I still need to find a better option than "Reboot, test active ftp on second line, if not working then repeat."
Thanks, Whit
