Yeah, I got it going just fine, same version too (1.2.0pre8) and there was no magic involved in getting it working. I simply installed the port and added the following two lines in /etc/pam.conf: ftp auth required pam_unix.so try_first_pass ftp account required pam_unix.so try_first_pass I discovered in the port workdir there were infact two sets of instructions for PAM under FreeBSD, one said to use the above two lines and the other said to add this third one: ftp session required pam_unix.so try_first_pass Which I did, but resulted in PAM errors in /var/log/messages to the effect of: Nov 9 23:29:58 deepthought proftpd[15183]: unable to resolve symbol: pam_sm_open_session Nov 9 23:29:58 deepthought proftpd[15183]: unable to resolve symbol: pam_sm_close_session When a valid user (non-anonymous connection) was made. I simply commented it out and it appears to be working just fine, no warnings or anything like that and the logging is all there from proftpd itself. ----- Original Message ----- From: Dan Langille <dan@freebsddiary.org> To: <freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG> Sent: Wednesday, November 10, 1999 5:31 AM Subject: proftpd and authentication failure > ProFTPD Version 1.2.0pre8 is giving me authentication problems.
