i installed proftpd on a fully updated centos 4.3 server.

the servers sits on a private lan (192.168.1.*)

when trying to acces the ftp (both from inside the lan and from outside trough a nat router) i cannot login

port forwarding is ok as i can enteer both username and password

error : 530 login incorrect

any ideas?

thanks

Do you have a file called /etc/pam.d/ftp containing:

#%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_unix.so nullok account required pam_unix.so session required pam_unix.so

That will probably fix your problem.
