rpm erase creates .rpmsave file when it is deleting a changed configuration file. so ftpaccess and ftpusers were changed config files from your old Wu-FTPD. > ftpusers got recreated: > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 191 Nov 3 11:38 ftpusers so ProFTPd uses a file called ftpusers also. you should merge your ftpuser.rpmsave with your new ftpusers; after reading the ProFTPd doco to make sure you know that ftpusers is doing what you expect (I'd expect it to be a list of userlogins who are allowed to use ftp) > BUT, I no longer have 'ftpaccess' > do I need /etc/ftpaccess with ProFTPd, should I manually recrceate it from > ftpacess.rpmsave ? No you don't need it otherwise the install of ProFTPd would have installed it for you. You can safely delete it to avoid confusion.
