I (marcel) log in with the password I have on this machine, so really wonder
why the second line gives me an authentication failure.

I haven't used proftpd for a while. Does it have any security
options (like not running as root or living in a chroot jail)
that would keep it from reading your shadow password file?

And out of curiosity, why are you using it instead of vsftpd?
