Well, I figured you did all that, but I had to ask, right? <grin> Does SLES8 have a /etc/pam.d/ftp file? If so, what is in it? I have:
#%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_listfile.so item=user sense=deny file=/etc/ftpusers onerr=succeed auth required pam_unix.so auth required pam_shells.so account required pam_unix.so password required pam_unix.so session required pam_unix.so Also, from looking at SLES7, "ftp" is not started as a daemon, but by "inetd" as needed. Doing a "info in.ftpd", it appears that SLES8 may be starting "ftp" with the -A option or with a line in the above PAM file like: auth required pam_listfile.so item=user sense=allow file=/etc/ftpchroot onerr=fail If you see the above like, comment it out by putting a # as the first character of the line. Also look in /etc/inetd.conf for a line similar to: ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.ftpd Make sure that the -A is not on that line! Wish I had SLES8 to look at these things myself. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Applications & Solutions Team +1.817.255.3225 This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its' content is protected by law.
