Determin which FTP server is running and turn off non secure FTP

[keith smith]

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]
As a test I issued : /sbin/service vsftpd stop 

which returned : vsftpd: unrecognized service

I have a CentOS server that I am working on.  Got SFTP working and now I want to turn off plain FTP.



For Centos do both of these as root:

   chkconfig --del vsftpd
   service vsftpd stop

The first line stops it from running on boot and the second kills the current instance of it.
