proftpd banner/server ident  

After many search attempts I finally found a way to make proftpd not announce the version after you connect. A simple

ServerIdent off will cause your server not to identify itself when you connect. Optionally you can also do ServerIdent on "Welcome to the FTP server" And give it some flavor text to display on connect. Information found at this page.

Yes, yes. ServerIdent off.

Proftpd....you ever try pure-ftpd?

Pretty secure (no known vulnerabilites YET (it's only been out
for about a year or two)), pretty secure and really simple to use...
and fast. K.I.S.S.
