A very Quick Installation Guide for ProFTPD

./configure
make
make install
cp -p proftpd /usr/sbin/
vi /usr/local/etc/proftpd.conf
vi /etc/xinetd.d/ftp

Paste the following content to the new configuration file:

# proftpd - Version: 1.2.8 (stable)
service ftp
    {
	flags           = REUSE
	socket_type     = stream
	instances       = 50
	wait            = no
	user            = root
	server          = /usr/sbin/proftpd
	server_args     = -c /usr/local/etc/proftpd.conf
	log_on_success  += DURATION USERID
	log_on_failure  += USERID
	nice            = 10
	port            = 21
    }

Reload xinetd:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd reload

Test if it works:

% sh sample-configurations/PFTEST.install
