Not sure if this is a side effect of none of our alma 8's being able to make it to alma 9 with just the conversion tool, but after every conversion to Alma 9, where there is no longer xinetd, FTP is inaccessible. We have to fix it by executing:
systemctl enable --now proftpd.socket
So our normal process is:
<preliminary work to address other reasons it will fail>
./almalinux8to9
dnf update -y --disablerepo=elevate --allowerasing
./almalinux8to9 --resume
<post-conversion work>
reboot
