ftp server recomendation?

[sean]

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
