 Pure-FTPD runs in standalone in inetd. just commented out the ftp line in /etc/inetd.conf and will do the trick

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 <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.
