I hear there were some security issues with proftpd.

Will ftptop work with vsftpd?
I wouldn't bet on this (excerpts from online man page): ftptop - display running status on proftpd server connections
Moreover, google reported many threads about people switching to proftpd to get benefit of those ftptop/ftpwho/etc. tools. It remain 3 possibilities now: either you find someone who already did a ftptop-like thing, or you program/script it, or send a feature request to the author..

Is there any way to monitor vsftpd traffic? Like ftpwho?
Monitoring at the packet level? .... tcpdump port 21
Other points/levels of monitoring depend on how you have vsftpd confiured:
At the login level you can monitor /var/log/messages
tail -f /var/log/messages | grep pam_userdb
if you have virtual users set up.
At the file transfer level you can monitor your xferlog file if you've configured this logging mechanism.
Also at the login level you can set up vsftpd to run under xinetd and log user, host, etc by watching /var/log/secure
tail -f /var/log/secure | grep vsftpd
I've been told that tail'ing logs is not pertinent on overloaded machines.. maybe smth like proftp's ftptop would help (show online users, current d/l and u/l, rates, etc.).
