Hello, I just followed your howto, and am now stuck on the last phase: loggin in. I had some errors in my config, but I cleared these out, but when I now try to log in, it says: The test account was made during the tutorial. I than made a new account (thijs), gave it a real password, using the phpmyadmin interface, but gave the same error. There a re no spelling errors, and there is no firewall or whatsoever. I guess it's an error in de connection between the MySQL database, and VSFTPD, but that's just a guess into the wild. for that reason, I've included a copy of my pam.d/vsftpd file. Hope you can help me, Best regards, Thijs Code: # Standard behaviour for ftpd(8). auth required pam_mysql.so user=vsftpd passwd=password host=localhost db=vsftpd table=accounts usercolumn=username passwdcolumn=pass crypt=2 # Standard behaviour for ftpd(8). account required pam_mysql.so user=vsftpd passwd=password host=localhost db=vsftpd table=accounts usercolumn=username passwdcolumn=pass crypt=2 # Note: vsftpd handles anonymous logins on its own. Do not enable # pam_ftp.so. # Standard blurb. @include common-account @include common-session @include common-auth auth required pam_shells.so # Note: vsftpd handles anonymous logins on its own. Do not enable # pam_ftp.so.
Are there any errors in you logs? You could enable MySQL logging in /etc/mysql/my.cnf and then check the MySQL queries that vsftpd makes.
