Proftpd failed

Sounds like a bad entry in your proftpd config file

I would locate proftd on your server and to the following command

proftpd --configtest

This will tell you what line in the config file is causing trouble.

You can try running porftpd in debug mode
/usr/sbin/proftpd -d -n5
should give you a hint.

make sure your /etc/hosts & etc/resolv.conf have valid info and setup.

i.e. your server box is server.domain.com
/etc/hosts :

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# That requires network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
Server-IP domain.com Server


/etc/resolv.conf :

domain domain.com
search domain.com
nameserver IP-address
nameserver IP-address
# you can have additional nameserver here
