I can FTP as root so I am thinking the FTP daemon is running. It just
any other user that cannot FTP.
That's weird ... or is it you're ftp'ing from the server to itself?
When you and they do an ftp, do you all get the ftp login prompt? If the
behaviour is different for them and you, then it's presumably a firewall
thing - their ftp request isn't even getting as far as the server.
Once you've got as far as the ftp login, what happens there? Can they
log in as root but not as themselves? You've now got a permissions
problem.
Oh - and your comment about the box being rebooted says immediately that
this is a "soft" problem. Have you got any records as to what you did
when you configured ftp? Because what seems obviously to have happened
is that you made changes to the running configuration, but you didn't
then push them back to the config files. So when the system all the
changes got lost. You need to look at what permission changes you made,
especially ones that affected the running ftp daemon. Because obviously
you needed to make the changes, but that's as far as they got...
If this doesn't help, come back with a LOT more detail about how it
works for root, but not for ordinary users, and somebody should have the
experience to chip in and identify the problem. If you can, posting a
successful and an unsuccessful session trace would be almost perfect...

Subject: [U2] FTP Users in HP-UX
We have something strange happening with FTP on our UNIX box. We have
some users setup to FTP files from our windows server to the UNIX box.
They were working fine until we rebooted the UNIX server. Now none of
them have FTP access into the UNIX box. This was the first time the box
had been rebooted since setting them up. These logins can telnet in fine
but cannot ftp.
I have reviewed all the settings and believe they are all correct. I am
not a UNIX guru but know enough to be dangerous;) Wish there was a
setting up FTP for Dummies instruction manual. Any clues as to what may
be part of the puzzle I am missing?
