Disabling the TLS section by

#<IfDefine TLS>[ ... ]# <IfModule mod_tls_shmcache.c> # TLSSessionCache shm:/file=/var/run/proftpd/sesscache # </IfModule> #</IfDefine>

is not a good idea because it breaks the system configuration. The correct way to configure TLS is to add

PROFTPD_OPTIONS="-DTLS -DDYNAMIC_BAN_LISTS"

to /etc/sysconfig/proftpd
