Updates to the proftpd-messages service have been committed to CVS. A 
lot of the changes are based on the patch that James Treworgy sent in 
[so big thanks to him]. It should now work with both "-" and ":" formats 
  which seems to be the difference between syslog and stand alone 
logging. Some simple Bugs got squished [BadShell had the wrong Hash in 
the reporting section.] I've added Notice and Error reports, ignore 
chroot notices, mod_delay and the no such user listings in favor of the 
USER line.

The only log line that I've seen that has not been handled yet is lines like

Unable to open password file
Unable to open group file

Which I suspect are an attack vector from and ANON login trying to 
change privileges. A little more research and I'll figure out how to 
report those.
