Are running pure-ftpd as a non-root user by chance? It might be that pure-ftpd drops too much of it privileges before doing PAM authentication. I am not familiar with the pure-ftpd code though. BTW, does pure-ftpd's pam authentication work for you for non-ldap based users?
Good point. Just tested and set the pam config back to defaults and tried to login through pure-ftpd as a "passwd" user. Fails the same way. That makes that most likely a pure pure-ftpd issue ;-) According to the preconfigured xinetd service it's started as root but still it could be compiled to drop privileges.
So I'm going to create a bugreport against pure-ftpd for now. Thanks for the hints.
BTW, have you tried pure-ftpd's native LDAP autentication instead of going through PAM? AFAIK our pure-ftpd packages are compiled with native LDAP support enabled. Ralf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
