ProFTPD and VirtualHost problems


I assume that it is possible to get ProFTPD to listen on several ports using VirtualHost.

I added these lines to a working conf:
Code:
<VirtualHost mydomain.com:2121>
</VirtualHost>
I get this error when i try to start proftpd:
Code:
 - getaddrinfo 'mydomain.com:2121' error: Name or service not known
 - getaddrinfo 'mydomain.com:2121' error: Name or service not known
 - error: unable to determine IP address of 'mydomain.com:2121'
myhostname - getaddrinfo 'mydomain.com:2121' error: Name or service not known
myhostname - error: unable to determine IP address of 'mydomain.com:2121'
I have tried alot of other stuff to, but nothing seems to help.
I run it as standalone.

What have i missed!?

hmmm, it looks like it does a name lookup for mydomain.com. I think you should use ftp.mydomain.com and put ftp.mydomain.com in your hosts file or make sure it is in DNS
