ProFTPd and PureFTP at once

Hello, how can I install proftpd and pureftpd at the same time? apt-get remove each other, is there any over-ride ?

 

Why do you need two FTP servers? Do you want to run them on different ports?

 

Our game-server admin panel run on proftpd, and ISP on Pureftp , pureftpd will run on different port. I just need how to force apt to not to remove each other.

 

Any ideas please ? Its really urgent.

 

I think you can install just one with apt; you must then install (e.g. compile) the other server manually.

 

I tried command 'hold' in aptitude, then I tried interactive aptitude , but I still dont know how to force it to not-to remove proftpd. Any ideas or tips how to handle apt ?

 

Anybody who helps me - successfully will get $5 on paypal.

What I want, is to run ProFTP at the same time as PureFTP(Mysql) but, PureFTP will listen on port 999. Proftp will still run on 21.

 

See post #5.

 

PureFTP(mysql) from source doesnt work.

 

Why not? Where exactly is the problem?

 

Simply, i set all --with parameters correctly, and after compilation , /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd-mysql start echo nothing. Ill try it differently, hope it wont f... more than it is now, ill install proftpd on my laptop, so if i start installing PureFTP , it wont check if there is or isnt any other ftp service. And if it does, it can be removed from Makefile.

Anyway, how can I change listen port of PureFTPd ?

 

Where did you get the /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd-mysql script from? Did you create it yourself?

 

I got it working, purged proftpd, installed pure-ftpd-mysql , worked, and then proftpd from source, Thanks anyway.
