ProFTP with SSL/TLS isn't as difficult as many may think.  The trick is 
to get the latest CVS from http://www.proftpd.org and compile it with 
the --with-modules=mod_tls option to the ./configure script.  As long as 
OpenSSL is installed along with header files, all will be good.  There 
are special configuration directives for it.  The following website is a 
great resource as well:
