If you use Wael's script change PROFTP=1.3.0 to PROFTP=1.3.1rc1.

Remember to update your proftpd.conf and rename DisplayFirstChdir to DisplayChdir.

rc is a true release it stands for release candidate ... heh

You must mean a stable version.

I've not tried it before but will the ports version safely work? What options do I *need* to enable? Do I need to override anything in /etc/make.conf?

I've already got a couple

Code: 
.if ${.CURDIR:M*/ftp/proftpd*}
WITH_SOME_OPTION=yes
.endif

style bits in my make.conf, but I dont know what to set stuff to as when I'm working with non CP servers I always install PureFTPd

well , the proftpd directadmin scripting asks for a DA version and i'm think DA package it differently to the port.


arhh i see your point HOW , we gota wait for 1.31 stable
 
The first upgrade upgraded the default DA proftpd binaries. When upgrading with portupgrade the proftpd config file locations change. Thought i`d mention this for folks still running 1.2xx.

Update Proftpd proftpd-1.2.10 to 1.3.0.2 on FreeBSD 5.4

Stop proftpd

Make backup of following files:
/etc/proftpd.conf
/etc/proftpd.passwd
/etc/proftpd.vhosts.conf
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/proftpd to proftpd.bck

Delete current proftpd version
Pkg_delete proftpd-x-x-x

Update ports tree.

Install proftpd:
Portinstall proftd

Copy:
/etc/proftpd.conf to:
/usr/local/etc/proftpd.conf
same for proftpd.passwd and proftpd.vhosts.conf

Copy:
/usr/local/etc/rc.d
cp proftpd.sh proftpd.sh.backup (if any)
cp proftpd.bck proftpd

Start proftpd

Update Proftpd proftpd-1.2.10 to 1.3.1rc1 on FreeBSD 5.4

Stop proftpd

Make backup of following files:
/usr/local/etc/proftpd.conf
/usr/local/etc/proftpd.passwd
/usr/local/etc/proftpd.vhosts.conf
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/proftpd

Update ports tree
Portupgrade proftpd

As earlier mentioned in the thread :
Edit /usr/local/etc/proftpd.conf
___

http://www.proftpd.org/docs/RELEASE_NOTES-1.3.1rc1 :
+ New configuration directives:
DisplayChdir
This directive replaces the old DisplayFirstChdir directive, and will cause the configured file to be displayed whenever the client changes into the directory in question, rather than only once.
To get the previous behavior, use:
DisplayChdir path true
which says to display the given path only once.
___
Start proftpd.

Tested on BSD 5.4 - DA 1.28.6
