I've been perusing posts on StackOverflow and related sites lately, and have seen many folks having issues with running proftpd on an EC2 instance in AWS. Mostly this relates to FTP's multiple TCP connection, and the usual router/NAT/firewall fun required to make the data transfers work.
To try to help these folks, I wrote up a ProFTPD AWS howto: http://www.proftpd.org/docs/howto/AWS.html and a mod_aws module, which can (hopefully) suggest necessary config changes (or make them itself); see: https://github.com/Castaglia/proftpd-mod_aws/ It's a work-in-progress, of course; you can see existing feature requests/bugs filed that I need to fix: https://github.com/Castaglia/proftpd-mod_aws/issues But I feel that mod_aws is at a point now where having a few other folks try it out (assuming you use AWS), help shake out more issues and make it more production-ready, would be quite useful. So if you use ProFTPD on EC2 instances in AWS, and would like to help out, please try out the module, let me know how it goes.
