how to uninstall proftpd in directadmin 1.50.1？
I use the command:

[HTML]cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build set proftpd no[/HTML]

it response that proftpd is not a valid option.

Try this:
Edit /usr/local/directadmin/conf/directadmin.conf and be sure pureftp=1 is stated in there and restart directadmin.

Stop proftpd from running:
service proftpd stop

On Centos you can also do:
chkconfig proftpd off

Then:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build set ftpd pureftpd
./build update
./build pureftpd

That should do the trick.

Do not remove proftpd files manually as some are still used for DA's functionality.

thank you，but i also don't want to install pureftpd

You don't want any ftpd at all? That's odd.
Sorry I don't know how to disable that completely. You can disable it by stopping the service and do a "chkconfig proftpd off" to prevent it from starting after a reboot, but still a big chance that DA itself will start it after restarting DA or the server.

Just out of curiousity, why should you want to disable all ftp services?

Hello,

Checking usage:

# ./build opt_help | grep ftp
proftpd_uploadscan: yes, no. Current value: no. Default value: no.
pureftpd_uploadscan: yes, no. Current value: no. Default value: no.
[B]ftpd:[/B] proftpd, pureftpd, [B]no[/B]. Current value: proftpd. Default value: pureftpd.

Disabling FTP:

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

List removals:

./build list_removals

follow instructions on the screen, example of output:

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
