Try including:

LsDefaultOptions "-a"

... in your ProFTPd config.

first you connect and go to directory public_html and type the command on ftp prompt ls -a (e.g ftp>ls -a) then you can see the .htaccess file .And you can also seen it under the directory

./public_html/.htaccess
./public_html/_vti_pvt/.htaccess
./public_html/_vti_log/.htaccess
./public_html/_private/.htaccess
