We’ll use the update-alternatives command to change the setting. Open up a terminal window and type in the following command:
You should see something similar to this:
For my system, gftp is option 2, so I type that in and hit the enter key.
There are 2 alternatives which provide `ftp’. Selection Alternative———————————————–+ 1 /usr/bin/netkit-ftp 2 /usr/bin/gftp-text Press enter to keep the default[], or type selection number: 2
To test this out, just type in “ftp localhost”… you should see that your system is now using gftp instead.
Nice and simple.
