What does your /etc/pam.d/proftpd say? I'm attaching how mine condenses. debian uses common-account, -auth, and -session in seperate files that are included. #%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_listfile.so item=user sense=deny file=/etc/ftpusers onerr=succeed #@include common-auth #from common-auth auth required pam_unix.so nullok_secure # This is disabled because anonymous logins will fail otherwise, # unless you give the 'ftp' user a valid shell, or /bin/false and add # /bin/false to /etc/shells. #auth required pam_shells.so #@include common-account #from common-account account required pam_unix.so #@include common-session #from common-session session required pam_unix.so --sean Mike Garfias wrote: >Thats just it.
