How to find Pure-FTPd version

Question

I have installed Pure-FTPd on my Ubuntu 10.04 LTS?

Which command will give the version of the server running?

Is it displayed when you connect to the ftp server that is running? — pl1nk, Jun 20, 2012 at 23:18

The following command gives you the installed version, if you installed the package via the ubuntu repository

apt-cache policy pure-ftpd

After a bit of research, this does seem to be the best way to see what version is installed. pure-ftpd doesn't have an easy way to get the version.
