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]
# 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 <package>
or
# yum remove <package>
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.
