Uninstall proftpd Solved

Question

Hello,

I installed proFTPd, but I made a mistake and deleted the proftpd.conf file in /etc/proftpd.

So the idea was to completely uninstall proFTPd and reinstall it so the proftpd.conf file would come back.

How can I do this?

Regards.

Normally it should suffice to reconfigure proftpd by running as root:

dpkg-reconfigure proftpd-basic

Or else, the method you suggest amounts to running as root:

aptitude purge proftpd-basic
aptitude update
aptitude install proftpd-basic

Good luck
