Every <VirtualHost> (and the default "server config") has a server name,
which defaults to "ProFTPD".  You can change this server name of the
ServerName directive, the one that is commented out in your config. 
Thus:

  ServerName Debian

With that enabled in your config, the STAT response should change to
look like:

  ftp> rstatus
  211-Status of ‘Debian’
  ...

Hope this helps!
