Description of problem:
I try to log in with an ftp client and I get

login incorrect

There's no system more secure that a server that doesn't work at all.

I have tried several known good local users and get the same result:

[root@darwin ~]# ftp bpofrontline.com
Connected to bpofrontline.com (66.77.12.173).
220 (vsFTPd 1.2.1)
Name (bpofrontline.com:root): marc
331 Please specify the password.
Password:
530 Login incorrect.
Login failed.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
vsftpd-1.2.1-5

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run ftp
2. try to log in
3. login fails
    

Actual Results:  [root@darwin ~]# ftp bpofrontline.com
Connected to bpofrontline.com (66.77.12.173).
220 (vsFTPd 1.2.1)
Name (bpofrontline.com:root): marc

Using authconfig I had MD5, Shadow, and Kerberos selected. When I
deselected Kerberos it fixed the problem. Kerberos screwed up pam
permissions.

Kerberos breaks vsftpd.

I just wasted two days trying to figure this out. 

Comment 2 Radek Vokál 2005-02-07 12:09:08 UTC
Ok, I'm closing this as NOTABUG. Were you able to login (into
terminal) with Kerberos auth turned on? If so, this should work with
kerberosized ftp client ..
