>From what I remember, proftpd is very picky about host names and DNS unless 
you tell it not to be in the config.  There is usually something in the logs 
to the effect of "Error: could not determine IP address of your.host.name" 
from proftpd.

In any case, as most the responses have suggested, /var/log/messages will most 
likely have the cause of the failure.
