However doesn't FTP run on 21 and SFTP on 22? I am able to FTP with either.  So both are working. ------------------------ Keith Smith --- On Wed, 6/23/10, Eric Shubert wrote: From: Eric Shubert Subject: Re: Determin which FTP server is running and turn off non secure FTP To: plug-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us Date: Wednesday, June 23, 2010, 6:42 PM keith smith wrote: > > I was looking around and found  SERVICEDIR="/etc/init.d"   in the /sbin/service file.  So I took a look in the /etc/init.d and found pure-ftpd. > > So I issued : /sbin/service pure-ftpd stop > > > which returned : > > > Stopping pure-config.pl: cat: /var/run/pure-ftpd.pid: No such file or directory > > kill: usage: kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] pid | jobspec ... or kill -l [sigspec] Far from elegant, but it appears that pure-ftpd wasn't running. # service pure-ftpd status usually will tell you if a service is running or not. > > As a test I issued : /sbin/service vsftpd stop > > which returned : vsftpd: unrecognized service Then vsftpd isn't installed. # rpm -qf /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd will tell you the name of the package that owns the init script. # rpm -e or # yum remove will remove it. Then you might want to reboot to be sure it's not running any more. If you have sftp working, chances are pretty good that pure-ftpd isn't running, unless you're using non-standard ports. -- -Eric 'shubes' --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
