Thanks for your reply. /usr/sbin/lsof -i :21 returns  xinetd     2417     root    6u  IPv4     6699       TCP *:ftp (LISTEN) I have looked all around and have search Google for hours. In these two files there was a reference to pure-ftpd   /etc/xinetd.d/ftp /etc/xinetd.d/ftp-tls  So I moved them to another directory.  Nothing changed. This is a manged server and the data center guy said "usually pure FTP is run via xinetd, There is nothing to turn off. Remove the service from xinetd I am at a loss. Any help much appreciated.   ------------------------ Keith Smith --- On Thu, 6/24/10, Dan Dubovik wrote: From: Dan Dubovik Subject: Re: Determin which FTP server is running and turn off non secure FTP To: "Main PLUG discussion list" Date: Thursday, June 24, 2010, 11:51 AM rpm -qa | grep ftp ? also chkconfig --list at the bottom of the list will be the xinetd based services.
