I have had no luck getting ProFTPd (proftpd-1.2.2rc1 installed from ports) working with NIS. Non-NIS accounts can log in, but NIS accounts cause proftpd to output PAM(user): Authentication failure. when I run it in debug mode. The stock ftpd works fine of course and it uses PAM. The PAM code in both looks very similar, so why does proftpd choke on NIS accounts? Do they relinquish privileges at different times so that proftpd can't use something it needs to do NIS account lookups through PAM? Thanks for any help you can give.
