Hi all!
I am currently looking at an issue that's puzzling me somewhat regarding the behaviour of vsFTP. I have a server with both vs- and ProFTP installed, and I want to use the latter to connect to the same server over FTP (yes, the same server - it's for testing).
To that end I have stopped the vsFTP service and switched it off in chkconfig, however still whenever attempt an FTP connection to the server, it uses vsFTPd, as per below:
[root@server1 ~]# ftp server1
Connected to server1 (10.200.1.2).
220 (vsFTPd 2.0.5)
Name (server1:user):
On the other hand, when connecting to "localhost", e.g. to the same server just not with the FQDN, it uses proFTP like I need it to:
[root@server1 ~]# ftp localhost
Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1).
220 ProFTPD 1.3.4a Server (Jobsite FTP Server - Unauthorised use prohibited) [::ffff:127.0.0.1]
Name (localhost:user):
Does anyone have any ideas on how to stop vsFTP from taking over? Ideally I would like to avoid having to remove it.
Cheers!

Edit: turns out an entry in /etc/hosts meant that the FQDN was pointing to another server, hence the issue! Now that it's been corrected, it's using proFTPd as required.
