Re: ProFTP login horror

I've set up the server and it is running, but when I try to login I get "530
Login incorrect".

It's like it doesn't know the password of the user that tries to login, but
authentication is done by PAM and it's a normal user that is known on the
system who's trying to login.
I expect proFTP to use the same username/password in this case, or is my
expectation wrong ?

Any hints to what I might have done wrong/forgotten in my setup ?

PAM has separate files under /etc/pam.d for each service that
uses it. Have you checked there to see if it is configured
for the same system-auth set of lookups that the other
services use?
