First, you need to make sure your installed ProFTPD has the mod_sftp module 
installed/included; you can see this via `proftpd -l`, or `proftpd -V`.

Once you know that mod_sftp is present/enabled, you need to configure an SFTP 
<VirtualHost>.  Note that using "SFTPEngine on" is not enough; mod_sftp 
requires other settings as well.  See the "Example Configuration" section of 
the mod_sftp docs:
  http://www.proftpd.org/docs/contrib/mod_sftp.html

Hope this helps,
TJ
