as Standalone server
Backup the configuration file incase you mess something up!
sudo
cp

Open the config for edit
sudo
nano /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf
Change your server name to whatever you like
ServerName
"whatever.mydomain.com"
Uncomment the line to restrict users to their home directory
DefaultRoot ~
Save your changes and then restart the service
sudo
service proftpd restart
And you can put a custom message in any folder to have it
displayed when accessed

nano /home/username/.message<br /><br />save and exit <br /><br />Now connect from windows ftp client . winscp or cuteftp or filezella<br /><br /><br />Connect and enjoy <br /><img src="http://i671.photobucket.com/albums/vv77/ZINOVSKY/ScreenShot014-1.png" border="0" width="715" height="455" />
