If you are insisting on using the tarball install of applications then
you should be getting your info from the site of application. 

But, the answer to your question is "yes".  When you install by rpm
there is a file placed in xinetd.d as well as init.d.

You can get these files yourself, if you are willing to do the work. 
All you have to do is download the proftpd rpm and use rpm2cpio and pipe
the output to cpio and extract the files.
