Subject:   strange ftpd login problem

I am using a VPS service provider who is running:
    FreeBSD 4.6.1-RELEASE-p10
    FTP server (Version 6.00LS)

A user is having problems with FTP login using GoLive 6.0 on MacOS X.  The
user has no problems with other FTP servers.  I tried a series of passwords
and he tried each with the result being that only passwords that begin with
his user name permit a successful login.  I installed GoLive 6.0 myself
under MacOS X and for me all passwords work on his account.

So unless you have a hunch about this, I would like to be able to view the
FTP sessions from the server side.  Is there a way to arrange this using
ftpd?  I can use a different port if necessary.  Alternatively I could
manually emulate an FTP server if I could create some talk-style interface
that his FTP client could connect to, but I have no idea how to do that.  Is
there a way to connect a terminal up to an incoming FTP port?

Thanks for any help.
