Changing the default server FTP logon banner message
How can one change the default server FTP logon banner message?
This would be a good place to put the server name that the customer is on.
220 ProFTPD 1.2.4 Server (ftp.domain.com) [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]
331 Password required for "user name".
230 User "user name" logged in.

For clarity's sake, don't use "<ip address of hostname>" use the ACTUAL 32-bit numeric IP address of the machine.

CrowMan,
Sure..
ProFTPd by default shows teh hostname of the server on which it is running for each login
If you want to change it to "ftp.xanadu.com" just put
ServerIdent On " ftp.xanadu.com" in proftpd.conf file
and it will display
ProFTPd ftp.xanadu.com
You may need to kill the current proftpd processes and restart the daemon for this to take effect
If you need any more info just holler!
Cheers
