Not an excuse.  The default starts at the top but you can put text
wherever you want.  I also have notes at work.

Do you have SELinux enabled? Depending on the context settings you
have set in SELinux can really lock down a service. Try disabling it
if you have it enabled.

I (marcel) log in with the password I have on this machine, so

really wonder
why the second line gives me an authentication failure.

I haven't used proftpd for a while.  Does it have any security
options (like not running as root or living in a chroot jail)
that would keep it from reading your shadow password file?

And out of curiosity, why are you using it instead of vsftpd?

There's no excuse for not trimming text properly either... there should be nothing but a sig below your last reply segment, shouldn't there?
