Is there also something like non stand-alone mode?

yes, it is runned by xinetd, and it works like charm, as long as it's on
a low traffic server. Xinetd can start almost any server, just when
needed.



It is still not clear to me what stand-alone mode means.

Another question:
What is the difference of starting vsftp by xinetd compared to starting
it with a scrip in /etc/init.d ? (as described in
http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/14689.html)

Why don't you just try it instead of asking "lazy" questions?

Try what?
