Hi Nate/James,

For the moment, the best solution is to disable PBKDF2 in Galaxy if
you are also using FTP. That is how Galaxy main is currently

We upgraded proftpd on the server to 1.3.5rc3 and have the following SQL part in our configuration file based on the post of http://dev.list.galaxyproject.org/ProFTPD-integration-with-Galaxy-td4660295.html
