Hello,

I'm using ProFTPD for the FTP service in a Debian Etch machine. I have a pair of questions about it.

I'm unable to use it in standalone mode. When I switch to it, the service seems up successfully (no notices when restarting) but the service becomes unavailable. From the very begginning I used it through inetd, but I cannot change it and I know not why.

The second thing is how to get rid of keepalives, not having to configure the clients to keep the connection active.

Here's my proftpd.conf.

Thanks in advance.
