    Hello.

    What is the purpose of having DefaultAddress 127.0.0.1 in ProFTPD? It sets default listeting address to localhost. What for?

    For all FTP connactions that connect to localhost, for example for the webFTP Program in ISPConfig.

    That is strange, but I was unable to connect to FTP with Windows Commander until I commented that line....
