| I have vsftpd running.
the vsftpd.conf is:
anonymous_enable=NO
local_enable=YES
dirmessage_enable=YES
connect_from_port_20=YES
xferlog_enable=YES
xferlog_file=/var/log/vsftpd/vsftpd.log
nopriv_user=nobody
chroot_list_enable=YES
chroot_local_user=YES
background=YES
listen=YES
I have setup a group and user. That user can login on the system ok (ie not
via FTP but at the system login prompt) and see his his directory of
/home/XXX (RWX rights)
If I ftp to the system the same login fails with error 530.
There is a user nobody setup.
What other info is needed to advise on this??
Thanks
Stewart

| I have looked at this some more today.
I can get anonymous download to login and download OK.
If I try to upload then it complains about running with a writeable
anonymous root.
Local users still can't login.
I have afeeling this is the key: What directory rights should be set on
which directories. How do I check if its set right?
Thanks

I had the exact same problem on my Fedora Core 2 machine. It looked like the issue was caused by vsftpd's PAM integration. The solution for me was to simply undefine VSF_BUILD_PAM in builddefs.h, and then run "make clean" and "make" again. |
