Add entries like the following (UseReverseDNS, IdenLookups) to your 
/etc/proftpd.conf and see if it fixes things. The following is copy/paste of 
the top part of my config file so you can see where they live in reference 
to other settings.

# This is a basic ProFTPD configuration file (rename it to
# 'proftpd.conf' for actual use.  It establishes a single server
# and a single anonymous login.  It assumes that you have a user/group
# "nobody" and "ftp" for normal operation and anon.

ServerName                      "ProFTPD C2"
ServerType                      inetd
DeferWelcome                    off
DefaultServer                   on
DefaultRoot                     / wheel
DefaultRoot         / admin-users
DefaultRoot                     ~/../../.. site-adm
DefaultRoot                     ~ !site-adm
UseReverseDNS                   off
IdentLookups                    off
