Eric,

What you do next depends upon "what" you want to do with it. If you're thinking of 
offering it as a private FTP server for folks you're expecting to stop by and grab 
files then the setup will be somewhat different then if you're setting it up to run 
24/7 for just anyone who either finds it or knows it's there and stops by for a look 
around at what you've got available.

One thing I will mention here is that Proftpd is somewhat more permissions sensitive 
then wu-ftpd, so be mindful of how you set it up. there is some very good 
documentation at the Proftpd site that will help you get going and get it configured 
to suit your needs as well as some good example config files both there and on your 
system from the install.

check here --> /usr/share/doc/proftpd-1.2.2  on your system for documentation that 
will shed quite a bit of light on what makes this app tick. very informative. If 
you've still got questions then let'em fly here and we'll take them one at a time.

I've got some experience with Proftpd and it's been running on my system for a few 
months now as well as on a server I setup at work. I'm very pleased with it's 
performance.
