Also check your userlist_* options in vsftpd.conf. If userlist_enable is YES, then make sure the login name you're using isn't in the user_list file (or is if userlist_deny=NO). You may want to check the PAM configuration as well, as it can add another layer, and another allow/deny list as it does on RHEL systems. You could also enable the dual_log_enable and syslog_enable options, as this may give you a bit more feedback in your logs to help get to the bottom of this. If all else fails, install/enable sshd and switch from FTP to SFTP. ;-) Gilles On 22/03/2011 12:27 PM, Kevin McGregor wrote:
Maybe someone can throw in their two cents on this:
I installed vsftpd on my Ubuntu 10.04 server, and I set
local_enable=YES write_enable=YES
When I FTP to the server, I get prompted for a username and password, but it seems to just reject it and ask for username/password again. What else do I need to do? I just want one account to be able to FTP upload files to this server.
