No, I didn't use --nodeps. I did as Paul suggessted: rpmbuild --rebuild --with mod_sql --with mod_sql_mysql proftpd-1.2.10-0.rc3.2.src.rpm > Well that all looks fine so I don't know what was happening. > Somehow he'd got it looking for but not finding the mysql > libraries. I wonder if he'd edited the spec file? No, I didn't touch the spec file. I would'nt have know what to edit. It rebuilt but I was unable to get proftpd setup so I went back to vsftpd. I tried to setup up a db as in the example but could not get the tables to create. I finally changed a few things and created a db that was similar. Then, I figured I'd have to manually insert all ftp users into the db. Then I wondered could some users (virtual host) be authenticated using mysql and others in a different virtual host by PAM or whatever vsftpd is using. I was getting over my head fast so I just went back to vsftpd. I do appreciate the help from both of you!! Thanks!!
