@jpbn, I installed this on a fresh F32 box and it worked straight away for me. Have you made any changes to the way the server is started? If you run rpm -V proftpd does it report anything other than /etc/ftpusers?
What do you get from ls -lZ /etc/proftpd.conf?
Here's what I get:
[root@tycho ~]# ls -lZ /etc/proftpd.conf
-rw-r-----. 1 root root system_u:object_r:ftpd_etc_t:s0 6485 May 31 17:35 /etc/proftpd.conf
[root@tycho ~]# rpm -V proftpd
S.5....T. c /etc/ftpusers

Keep asking for more if you need. regards
proftpd is a server, not a client. You start it by doing:
You can check its status by doing:
It looks like your last attempt at starting it via sudo worked, so you may need to kill that one if it's still running.
OK thank you for your comments. Works.
