James,

For FTP, I edited /etc/proftpd.conf to include the following line:

IdentLookups          off

and then restarted ProFTP with /etc/rc.d/init.d/proftpd restart


For POP/POPS I edited ipop3 and pops in /etc/xinetd.d/ to include

log_on_success          = yes

instead of what it was(=+ USERID or something like that). Then I
restarted xinitd with /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart
