    I'm seeing following in my logs. Any ideas how to get rid of this msg.

    Apr 23 13:30:01 server proftpd[31567]: localhost.localdomain (localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1]) - FTP session opened.
    Apr 23 13:30:01 server proftpd[31567]: localhost.localdomain (localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1]) - FTP session closed.



    Here's copy of my /etc/proftpd.conf

    Code:
    
    DefaultRoot ~
    IdentLookups off
    ServerIdent on "FTP Server ready."
    
    # Port 21 is the standard FTP port.
    Port                            21
    
    # Umask 022 is a good standard umask to prevent new dirs and files
    # from being group and world writable.
    Umask                           022
    
    # To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum number of child processes
    # to 30.  If you need to allow more than 30 concurrent connections
    # at once, simply increase this value.  Note that this ONLY works
    # in standalone mode, in inetd mode you should use an inetd server
    # that allows you to limit maximum number of processes per service
    # (such as xinetd).
    MaxInstances                    30
    
    # Set the user and group under which the server will run.
    User                            nobody
    Group                           nobody
    
    # To cause every FTP user to be "jailed" (chrooted) into their home
    # directory, uncomment this line.
    DefaultRoot ~
    
    # Normally, we want files to be overwriteable.
    AllowOverwrite          on
    
    # Bar use of SITE CHMOD by default
    <Limit SITE_CHMOD>
      DenyAll
    </Limit>
    
    # A basic anonymous configuration, no upload directories.  If you do not
    # want anonymous users, simply delete this entire <Anonymous> section.
    <Anonymous ~ftp>
      User                          ftp
      Group                         ftp
    
      # We want clients to be able to login with "anonymous" as well as "ftp"
      UserAlias                     anonymous ftp
    
      # Limit the maximum number of anonymous logins
      MaxClients                    10
    
      # We want 'welcome.msg' displayed at login, and '.message' displayed
      # in each newly chdired directory.
      DisplayLogin                  welcome.msg
      DisplayChdir                  .message
    
      # Limit WRITE everywhere in the anonymous chroot
      <Limit WRITE>
        DenyAll
      </Limit>
    </Anonymous>
    
    Include /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf

    This is ISPConfig's monitoring module which tries to check if the FTP server is running. Nothing to worry about.
