I have tried to get ProFTPD running also, with the options you mentioned
here. But alas, to no avail. When I switch from 'standalone' to 'inetd' and
restart things, ProFTPD complains that there is a socket problem:

Starting proftpd: tbird.merlijn - Fatal: Socket operation on non-socket
tbird.merlijn - (Running from command line? Use `ServerType standalone' in
config file!)

Any clues? It would be nice to have FTP running again.
