ProFTPd feature kept me from logging in

1999-07-31 Thread bruce
It turns out that ProFTPd would not log me in because my login shell was not listed in /etc/shells . It didn't do anything to _tell_ me that. I'd suggest it prompt for the login and password and then dump you with a message as soon as you succeed in logging in. Thanks Bruce

I noticed this problem a while back. There is (was at the time) a bug against su because, somehow, the compile-time flag needed to enable this logging had been removed. I noticed this change when I upgraded from hamm to slink. My solution was to recompile su. It is in the shellutils package
