Please read the "Important note about CGI scripts" in the upgrade announcement:

In order to enable .shtml, you should perform these commands:

mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
cat >  /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf <AddHandler server-parsed .shtml
EOF
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event console-save

You need to be aware that this will make your server vulnerable to a local malicious user (if you have one). e-smith, inc does not recommend that you enable .shtml on the current version of the e-smith server and gateway.

As Damien says, this is a reported bug in the latest version of proftpd - we are disappointed to find that this has been known for a while, but not fixed.

Please try the new version proftpd-1.2.0rc2-6es.i386.rpm in my contrib area - it will be there in about half an hour.

Please read (carefully) the release notes for the update. Pay attention to the section about ScriptAlias.
