I get these on a Qube2:

Aug 20 01:15:02 www kernel: IPX Portions Copyright (c) 1995 Caldera, Inc.
Aug 20 01:15:03 www kernel: Appletalk 0.17 for Linux NET3.035
Aug 20 01:15:04 www proftpd[21795]: www.domain.com
(www.domain.com[192.168.1.1]) - FTP session closed. 

I assume the above changes will work on a Qube2?

You did not mention commenting out the existing alias definitions for those
two, but I assume one needs to do that? 

# alias net-pf-4 ipx
alias net-pf-4 off
# alias net-pf-5 appletalk
alias net-pf-5 off

Is any restart required to make these take effect?

How about one for the proftpd check?

Thanks for the info, I have wanted to know how to turn on those messages for
some time now.

Mike.
