FTP LOGINS slow and times out quickly.

The servers were recently upgraded with new proftp software.  You can greatly increase the speed of your logins by downloading in ascii mode this file:  /etc/proftpd.conf

Where it has:

# normal stuff 

Put this:

# normal stuff
ServerIdent                        off
ServerType                        inetd
DefaultServer                     on
DefaultRoot                        ~
AllowForeignAddress        on
RequireValidShell              off
ShowDotFiles                   on
TimeoutIdle                      3600
TimeoutStalled                 3600
TimeoutLogin                   900
TimeoutNoTransfer          3600
UseReverseDNS             off
IdentLookups                  off

This will speed up your logins and stop timing you out at 300 seconds.
