Looks as though i did follow too much to the letter - my apologies, i have removed [....] the said

and carried out the following, results below:-

xxxxx:~ # telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 xxxxxx.example.com ESMTP Postfix

quit
221 2.0.0 Bye
Connection closed by foreign host.
Only got as far as the this

220 xxxxxx.example.com ESMTP Postfix

and it just seems to hang there - so i exited
Any thing more that i can do?

Progressing on from the above:-

I have carried out the following and have ran in to this error, is it ok? I have checked the line one issue but did not see anything that might result in an error.

xxxxxx:/tmp # /etc/init.d/proftpd start
/etc/init.d/proftpd: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `c'
/etc/init.d/proftpd: line 1: `opyright (c) 2000-2001 SuSE GmbH Nuernberg, Germany.'

It looks as if there is an issue or something may have been broken.

xxxxxx:/tmp # /etc/init.d/proftpd restart
/etc/init.d/proftpd: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `c'
/etc/init.d/proftpd: line 1: `opyright (c) 2000-2001 SuSE GmbH Nuernberg, Germany.'

Thanks

This is where you have to enter

Code:

ehlo localhost

What's in /etc/init.d/proftpd?

Hi Falko
Thanks i have now changed the first and second line as advised

However upon exit of vi the following messaged is shown:-
xxxxxx:~ # vi /etc/init.d/proftpd vi
2 files to edit

I have progress to stage 17 of your post and ran into the following when installing ISPconfg can you help with this?
I have read the install docs.

English is Chosen 2
Do you want to continue with the installation? [y/n]y
Do you accept the licence? [y/n]y
1) standard
2) expert
Your Choice: 1
Checking for MTA...
/usr/sbin/postfix
OK

ISPConfig found the following MTA:
postfix
Is this correct? [y/n]y
Check ftp [y/n] y
STEP 0: Decide the signature algorithm used for certificates
The generated X.509 certificates can contain either
RSA or DSA based ingredients. Select the one you want to use.
Signature Algorithm ((R)SA or (D)SA) [R]:R
STEP 2: Generating X.509 certificate signing request for CA [ca.csr]
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.
-----
1. Country Name (2 letter code) [XY]:UK
2. State or Province Name (full name) [Snake Desert]:.
3. Locality Name (eg, city) [Snake Town]:XXXXXX
4. Organization Name (eg, company) [Snake Oil, Ltd]:XX
5. Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) [Certificate Authority]:.
6. Common Name (eg, CA name) [Snake Oil CA]:.
7. Email Address (eg, name@FQDN) [ca@snakeoil.dom]:.
8. Certificate Validity (days) [365]:365
STEP 3: Generating X.509 certificate for CA signed by itself [ca.crt]
Certificate Version (1 or 3) [3]:3
STEP 5: Generating X.509 certificate signing request for SERVER [server.csr]
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.

1. Country Name (2 letter code) [XY]:UK
2. State or Province Name (full name) [Snake Desert]:.
3. Locality Name (eg, city) [Snake Town]:LONDON
4. Organization Name (eg, company) [Snake Oil, Ltd]:JJA
5. Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) [Webserver Team]:.
6. Common Name (eg, FQDN) [www.snakeoil.dom]:.
7. Email Address (eg, name@fqdn) [www@snakeoil.dom]:.
8. Certificate Validity (days) [365]:.
STEP 6: Generating X.509 certificate signed by own CA [server.crt]
Certificate Version (1 or 3) [3]:3
