FTP login incorrect when user specified
Dear Linux Experts, what might be the reason for the following behaviour of FTP when trying to log into my Linux device: the client shows 'connected to 134.2.4.8' but after specifying the user and the CORRECT password, it shows: '530 Login incorrect. Login failed' It can't be a problem of the hosts.allow and hosts.deny class i presume ? gg - gunfried geiger, institut museum fuer geologie und palaeontologie sigwartstrasse 10, D-72076 tuebingen phone +49-7071-29-72492 fax 6990 email: --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] (NOTE the double g) --- Free Spirit Free Tibet Free China -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

However, ftp denies normal users the ability to log in if their username is listed in /etc/ftpusers, or if the user has a non-standard shell. (A shell is considered non-standard if it's not listed in /etc/shells). Could either of these be the case? thanks for the hint (and for those of other people too) i checked both and found: denied are root, uucp, news allowed are /bin/sh bash tcsh csh and i use tcsh, but now also tried sh - no success but: previously (months ago, before an update of some packages may be, as Tom Sailer suspects) everything worked well ? gg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Thank you Perhaps you should try PartitionMagic to create a new partition without deleting the existing one ciao gg - gunfried geiger, institut museum fuer geologie und palaeontologie sigwartstrasse 10, D-72076 tuebingen phone +49-7071-29-72492 fax 6990 email: --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] (NOTE the double g) --- Free Spirit Free Tibet Free China -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Debian, Notebook, and Parallel CDROM
Dear Debian Community, Could anybody give me a hint on where to find a 'notebook-howto' or the like? Actually i'm trying to install Debian Linux version 1.3.1 from CDROM unto a Siemens-Nixdorf PCD-5ND 75MHz Pentium Notebook. The first obstacle: how can i get the external parallel port CDROM drive (FreeCom) to work? I could not find a driver. The second: how can i drive the Future Domain PCMCIA-to-SCSI adapter? How can i drive the PCMCIA D-Link DE660CT ethernet adapter? And, coming soon, how configure the graphics adapter (the manual tells it's a C T 65???) In case anybody got experience with this, please hand it down to me thanks gunfried - gunfried geiger, institut museum fuer geologie und palaeontologie sigwartstrasse 10, D-72076 tuebingen phone +49-7071-29-72492 fax 6990 email: --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] (NOTE the double g) --- Free Spirit Free Tibet Free China -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
