That did the trick. Only problem is that find_service2.nasl already had code in there 
to detect an FTP server returning the 220 but needed the word FTP in the banner 
somewhere as well. It also said in the comments that some SMTP servers will respond 
with a 220. Not the most elegant solution but I already know that port is an FTP 
server anyway, so I can just inject the modified nasl script before I do a scan on 
that device.

Thank you for the quick response.

maybe edit the find_services2.nasl and force it to register as an ftp
server?
