Login failed. Thanks in advance for your help
1) Did you enable the ftp checkbox in the settings of the website in ispconfig? 2) Are you sure that the username is really scu and not something like web1_scu ?
Thanks for your reply yes i did do check the FTP access checkbox and i tried to add the prefix web1_ to user named scu becoming web1_scu but the login fails i do access client's host control panel with the following data user : scu pwd : scu
Thanks for your reply You mean grep isn't it here's the output root@mis:# grep scu /etc/passwd root@mis:#
The CP login user is not equal to the user that may access via FTP. For FTP you need to create a user via email&users and give it administrator rights.
