How to uninstall proftpd in directadmin

| 10:59:57 03.01.2017

If for any reason you want to uninstall proftpd in Directadmin and don't want to run any FTP server at all. Here is a guide on how to complete it.

First check and see CustomBuild version

./build version

You should see an output similar to the following:

2.0.0 (rev: 1631)

You need to have CustomBuild 2.x to succeed with this guide. It won't work if you have 1.x version. 

 

Disable FTP

cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build set ftpd no

 

List removals

./build list_removals

Make sure you see ProFTPd and/or PureFTPd in a output as the following:

ProFTPd installed, but not enabled in options.conf: './build remove_proftpd'

If you want to remove all the suggested programs above, run: ./build remove_items

 

Removing ProFTPd and PureFTPd

./build remove_proftpd
./build remove_pureftpd

That's it!
