Well, there's a /etc/pam.d/proftpd file there but whether the content is correct I have no idea. I'm not familiar with PAM authentication method that well. I have this in the file : #%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_listfile.so item=user sense=deny file=/etc/ftpusers onerr=succeed auth required pam_stack.so service=system-auth auth required pam_shells.so account required pam_stack.so service=system-auth session required pam_stack.so service=system-auth On the other hand I read that I need /etc/pam.d/ftp instead of /etc/pam.d/proftp, but I guess since the proftp file is supplied with the RPM, it doesn't make a difference. regards, Marcel
