Hi-
I just installed pure-ftpd. Whenever I try to log in, I get the following message:
| Code: |
saopaulo root # ncftp -u media localhost
NcFTP 3.1.4 (Jul 02, 2002) by Mike Gleason (ncftp@ncftp.com).
Connecting to 127.0.0.1...
=(<*>)=-.:. (( Welcome to PureFTPd 1.0.11 )) .:.-=(<*>)=-
You are user number 1 of 5 allowed
Local time is now 06:45 and the load is 0.00. Server port: 21.
You will be disconnected after 15 minutes of inactivity.
Logging in...
Password requested by 127.0.0.1 for user "media".
User media OK. Password required
Password: ***********
Authentication failed, sorry
Could not open host localhost: username and/or password was not accepted for login.

Here is my /etc/conf.d/pure-ftpd file:
| Code: |
# Config file for /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd
##Comment variables out to disable its features, or change the values in it... ##
## This variable must be uncommented in order for the server to start ##
IS_CONFIGURED="yes"
## FTP Server,Port (separated by comma) ##
## If you prefer host names over IP addresses, it's your choice :
## SERVER=" S ftp.rtchat.com,21"
## IPv6 addresses are supported.
SERVER="-S 21"
## Number of simultaneous connections in total, and per ip ##
MAX_CONN="-c 5"
MAX_CONN_IP="-C 2"
## Start daemonized in background ##
DAEMON="-B"
## Don't allow uploads if the partition is more full then this var ##
DISK_FULL="-k 90%"
## If your FTP server is behind a NAT box, uncomment this ##
USE_NAT="-N"
## Authentication (others are 'pam', ...)##
## Further infos in the README file.
AUTH="-lunix"
## Change the maximum idle time. (in minutes. default 15)
#TIMEOUT="-I <timeout>'"
## Use that facility for syslog logging. It defaults to 'ftp'
## Logging can be disabled with '-f none' .
#LOG="-f facility"
## Misc. Others ##
MISC_OTHER="-A -x -j -R"
#
# Use these inside $MISC_OTHER
# More can be found on "http://pureftpd.sourceforge.net/README"
#
# -A [ chroot() everyone, but root ]
# -e [ Only allow anonymous users ]
# -E [ Only allow authenticated users. Anonymous logins are prohibited. ]
# -i [ Disallow upload for anonymous users, whatever directory perms are ]
# -j [ If the home directory of a user doesn't exist, auto-create it ]
# -M [ Allow anonymous users to create directories. ]
# -R [ Disallow users (even non-anonymous ones) usage of the CHMOD command ]
# -x [ Authenticated users can read/write files beginning with a dot ('.')
# Anonymous users can't, for security reasons ]
# -X [ Users can't write/read files and directories starting with a dot ('.') ]
# -D [ List files beginning with a dot ('.') even when the client doesn't
# append the '-a' option to the list command. A workaround for badly
# configured FTP clients. ]
# -G [ Disallow renaming. ]
# -d [ Send various debugging messages to the syslog. ONLY for DEBUG ]
# -F <fortune file> [ Display a fortune cookie on login. Check the README file ]
# -H [ By default, fully-qualified host names are logged. The '-H' flag avoids host names resolution. ]

I have verified that my username is in /etc/passwd and that my shell is in /etc/shells.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here???
Thanks,

I have a nasty habit of asking for help and then figuring it out only after I ask...
I end up using the pure-ftpd password database and it works...
