    Helo,
    I have created one group called RBAC.(roll back access control)

    Now when I created user of RBAC its entry in /etc/passwd file is given below:

    roleadm:x:120:109:RBAC User:/home/pds_RBAC:/bin/false

    I have keep at the end /bin/false because I dont want to give direct login to the user on the system

    But RBAC type of user is not able to FTP to system.

    can you tell me why this happen. what is needed to enable FTP for user

    Regards,
    Amit

    Which FTP daemon (Proftpd, vsftpd, pureftpd, etc.) are you using? What's in /etc/shells?
