Subject:   wu_ftpd - can't set guest privilages

I've got a problem with wu_ftpd, and the guestgroup option.  I would
*really* like to keep my users restricted to /home, but wu_ftpd comes
back, and gives a "can't set guest privilages" error on some of my
users, but not others.  They all have the same shell (/usr/bin/passwd)
, and they are all in one of 2 groups (dialup, inet).  My
ftpaccessfile looks like this:

--- begin /usr/local/etc/ftpaccess ---
class   all   real,guest,anonymous  *
guestgroup dialup,inet
limit   all   20   Any              /etc/msgs/msg.dead

readme  README*    login
readme  README*    cwd=*

message /welcome.msg            login
message .message                cwd=*

compress        yes             local remote
tar             yes             local remote

log commands real
log transfers anonymous,real inbound,outbound

shutdown /etc/shutmsg

email st@i-Plus.net

--- end /usr/local/etc/ftpaccess ---

As you can see, this is pretty much the default ftpaccess, with only
a couple changes.  I'm at a total loss as to what wu_ftpd is doing
here, any suggestions?
