Summary:
I would like to disable FTP on a server so that none of the other servers can FTP to this server. However, I should be able to enable whenever I need it. How do I do this?

You can disable any service in /etc/inetd.conf file. For example
modify the 'ftp service ' line from:

ftp stream tcp6 nowait root /usr/sbin/ftpd ftpd

to

#ftp stream tcp6 nowait root /usr/sbin/ftpd ftpd

and don't forget about restart the inetd

refresh -s inetd
