How do I get anonymous ftp working under SuSE Pro 7.0?
I have the following entry in /etc/passwd: ftp::40:2:ftp account:/usr/local/ftp:/bin/bash
/etc/shadow is being used on this system (as per default SuSE 7.0 install) but I removed the ftp entry there and modified the password field in /etc/passwd so that no password is set.
When I try to ftp in as 'anonymous' I get the following error after the entering any thing at the password prompt:
530 Login incorrect ftp: Login failed
Regular users CAN ftp in correctly.
/etc/inetd.conf: ftp stream ftp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.ftpd
The file /etc/nologin does not exist The file /etc/ftpusers does not contain the user ftp
In earlier versions of SuSE the ftpd always appeared under ps auxw (I think). Now under version 7.0 it is only displayed under ps when a ftp client tries/has connected to the ftpd.
Any ideas what I need to get anonymous ftp to work?
Many thanks in advance regards Garry
