Hello,

DirectAdmin 1.40.1 has been released.
http://www.directadmin.com/versions.php?version=1.401000

This is a bug-fix release to address the broken commands.deny/commands.allow files from 1.40.0.
http://www.directadmin.com/features.php?id=1280

This release also has a new feature for Users to track outbound emails for their accounts, in realtime. It will greatly help track spam in a more efficient manner. Note that it needs a manual update of the exim.pl to version 10.

The CentOS 4 64-bit OS is also included in this release, as the box was down for 1.40.0.

Code: 
wget -O /etc/exim.pl http://files1.directadmin.com/services/exim.pl.10
/etc/init.d/exim restart

Just for confirmation, the manual update of exim.pl is not needed for new installations?
 
I received an email that DA got updated.
2 mins after and every hour since, I'm receiving emails that pure-ftpd is down..
I checked its log, which was empty..
Then for a double check, I checked the proftpd log, and it was running o_0;
(I was under the impression that proftpd was uninstalled by custombuild, like a year ago)
But now proftpd just popped back up =/

Could that be the DA update doing ?


I've updated pure-ftpd with custumbuild, and it looks okay now.
[root@server custombuild]# service pure-ftpd status
pure-ftpd (pid 10358) is running...
[root@server custombuild]# service proftpd status
proftpd dead but subsys locked
[root@server custombuild]#

Check that proftpd is not set to yes in /usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/services.status

If it is I would just remove the line and restart directadmin.

Also run

Code: 
/usr/local/directadmin/directadmin c | grep -i '^pureftp='

Make sure it says pureftp=1 and not pureftp=0
 
Further to scsi's comment, my guess is that the setting was changed in the directadmin.conf in the past, but after the update, once DA is restarted, this will finally reload the config, hence the message just started.
Ensure the directadmin.conf settings are as they should be.

Thanks, I guess this issue would go to the custombuild area then


I removed the line proftpd=1 from /usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/services.status
THere's no pure-ftpd=1 line in there, btw.

/usr/local/directadmin/directadmin c | grep -i '^pureftp=' gave pureftpd=0
when I try to vim into /usr/local/directadmin/directadmin I get jibberish, and the only directadmin.conf file I see is /usr/local/directadmin/conf/directadmin.conf, in which neither proftpd as pure-ftpd is stated...

You should add:

pureftp=1

in /usr/local/directadmin/conf/directadmin.conf then restart directadmin

Do this for custombuild:

Code: 
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build set proftpd no
./build set pureftpd yes

New installs still use the older exim.pl version 8.
We'll be changing it to version 10 for new installs once it's proven itself.
