Hey, I just noticed my ProFTPd service is OFF… can you tell me how this affects my system… does this mean that SSH has been handling FTP for all these years? I do both SFTP and FTPS… thx!

Hello,
This topic has been discussed before; check out this post:
Ah… ok… I see the quote from the other discussion:
That feature is simply not what you think it is. “Virtual FTP” means devote one IP to each domain. Almost no one should enable that feature (honestly, today, I think it’s literally no one that should enable it…ProFTPd has name-based virtual hosts). I’m pretty sure Jamie has removed the feature from visibility in the next version, even.
If you don’t want FTP to be available for users that have a valid shell for FTP, you probably just want to stop the ProFTPd service.
So that option will disappear in the future, ok, thx!
