after upgrade from 1.3.3-rc2 to 1.3.3-rc3 I get this web / # /etc/init.d/proftpd stop * Caching service dependencies... [ ok ] * Stopping ProFTPD... [ ok ] web / # /etc/init.d/proftpd start * Checking ProFTPD configuration...Checking syntax of configuration file Syntax check complete. 192.168.1.104 - ProFTPD terminating (signal 11) 192.168.1.104 - FTP session closed. /etc/init.d/proftpd: line 13: 2774 Segmentation fault /usr/sbin/proftpd -t -c /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf * A configuration error was found. You have to fix your configuration file. [ !! ] * ERROR: proftpd failed to start rc2 was running perfectly with this conf file so I don't think it's that really, and the syntax check seem to pass as well. Right now I'm w/o ftp as rc2 was removed and I don't like to fiddle by getting back to 1.3.2 so some help on this would be appreciated.

I just found I have exactly the same issue. I don't think it is an configuration problem cause when I run /usr/bin/proftpd -t -c /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf.sample I still had segmentation fault. Have to mask it temporarily.
I think this is: http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3359

I went on to report this upstreams as well yesterday before bed time but then voke up with a fever... and now found it was solved, there, but we need the patch added to the ebuild here.

Indeed, I hope you'll get well soon In the meantime, thanks for the bugreport, and link to upstream fix! I've just pushed proftpd-1.3.3_rc3-r1 that includes the patch (and double-checked configuration check in my test)
