I think you can edit the /etc/default/ftpd with the following:
 
# cat /etc/default/ftpd
BANNER="WARNING: Authorized use only!"
 
if you don't want it to say anything you can just do BANNER=""

Subject: [FW1] Disabling Checkpoint 'banner' for FTP?

Hi all,
 
I've looked on phoneboy.com and could not find the answer to this question.  When connecting to FTP thru a CP Firewall, how do you disable the following "banner"?
 
"220 aftpd: Check Point Firewall-1 Secure FTP server running on machinename"
 
I don't think it's a good idea to broadcast not only the type of firewall, but also the name of the machine that the firewall is running on.
 
You can reply privately to [EMAIL PROTECTED].  Thanks in advance.
