I am not too sure what you are saying. You say FTP can't log in. But users can. It works. And this is the way it was set up when RH7.3 was installed. I know it looks wrong so what should be there? And how is that line changed in /etc/passwd?? Also, will it make any difference if things are not changed?? >Ted Gervais wrote: >>Just looking this file over too, and I see under ' ftp:x:14.50:FTP >>User/var/ftp: that I have all that but it ends with :/sbin/nologin >>Should that be changed?
