Hi I followed this how to http://www.howtoforge.com/proftpd_mysql_virtual_hosting_debian_etch
when I try to start proftpd i get this error message
/etc/init.d/proftpd restart
Starting ftp server:/etc/init.d/proftpd: line 88: 8554 Segmentatiefout start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile "$PIDFILE" --oknodo --exec $DAEMON -- $OPTIONS
failed!

did you restart proftp under root?

Maybe you made a typo in chap 5 (5 Configure Proftpd)?

Make sure that you replace the string password with the real password for the MySQL user proftpd in the line SQLConnectInfo

thanks for your quick reaction I submitted the right password in the conf file for proftpd i double checked it i found a link for linux from scratch chmod 755 /etc/init.d/proftpd which did not give the solution
