Your'e problem is that when you type in:
# proftpd
you've started it before you run the init script.  So when the init
script tries to start it, it fails because there is already a proftpd
started.  The IPV6 error is only a problem if you need IPV6.
Otherwise:
# ps ax | grep proftpd
<number> ?        Ss     0:00 proftpd: (accepting connections)
# kill <number>
# /etc/init.d/proftpd start
# (if you want to start at boot) rc-update add proftpd default
