1 Your'e problem is that when you type in:
2 # proftpd
3 you've started it before you run the init script. So when the init
4 script tries to start it, it fails because there is already a proftpd
5 started. The IPV6 error is only a problem if you need IPV6.
6 Otherwise:
7 # ps ax | grep proftpd
8 <number> ? Ss 0:00 proftpd: (accepting connections)
9 # kill <number>
10 # /etc/init.d/proftpd start
11 # (if you want to start at boot) rc-update add proftpd default
