Email & FTP

[leftcase]

Hi there,

I don't have any need for FTP or email services on my DirectAdmin powered server. Is there any way I can turn these off please?

Thank you

Chris

Where are you getting stuck? Have you logged in yet?

Hi Floyd, thanks for getting in touch.

Yeah - I have logged in, but notice that DirectAdmin automatically restarts any services I stop. Perhaps it does this when I add a new account?

If you turn off a service using the service monitor then DirectAdmin will not try to restart it. Check the file /usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/services.status

If that file shows the service as OFF then something else is restarting it. Perhaps a reboot. If that is the case then you need to remove the startup script.
