 |
|
Hi guys,
I've installed ProFTP and configured, proftpd is up and running but I'm having problem loggin in, says 530 Authentication failed.
have created a username called: ftpjd, usergroup is ftp-users, have added the user to the usergroup, and set the password for the user. Why it says that authentication failed? What am i doing wrong here?
TIA =)
this is my proftpd.conf file:
| Code: |
#
# proftpd config file
#
#
ServerName "coolies.com"
ServerType standalone
DeferWelcome off
ShowSymlinks on
MultilineRFC2228 on
DefaultServer on
ShowSymlinks on
AllowOverwrite on
RequireValidShell off
#ShowDotFiles off
#ShowSymlinks off
MaxClientsPerHost 1 "You are already logged on once."
LogFormat traff "%b %u"
TimeoutNoTransfer 600
TimeoutStalled 600
TimeoutIdle 1200
DisplayLogin welcome.msg
DisplayFirstChdir .message
#ListOptions "-l"
DenyFilter \*.*/
DefaultRoot ~
# Uncomment this if you are using NIS or LDAP to retrieve passwords:
#PersistentPasswd off
# Port 21 is the standard FTP port.
Port 21
# To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum number of child processes
# to 30. If you need to allow more than 30 concurrent connections
# at once, simply increase this value. Note that this ONLY works
# in standalone mode, in inetd mode you should use an inetd server
# that allows you to limit maximum number of processes per service
# (such as xinetd)
MaxInstances 10
# Set the user and group that the server normally runs at.
User ftpjd
Group ftp-users
# Normally, we want files to be overwriteable.
<Directory /*>
# Umask 022 is a good standard umask to prevent new files and dirs
# (second parm) from being group and world writable.
Umask 022 022
AllowOverwrite on
HideNoAccess on
</Directory>
<Limit ALL>
IgnoreHidden on
</Limit>
