/etc/services and HUP inetd.

Or rtfm:

       The  -p  and  -P options override the port numbers used by
       the daemon.  Normally, the daemon determines the port num­
       bers by looking in /etc/services for "ftp" and "ftp-data".
       If there is no /etc/services entry for "ftp-data" and  the
       -P  option is not specified, the daemon uses the port just
       prior to the control connection port.  The  -p  option  is
       only available if running as a standalone daemon.
