The PureFTPD website is dead. I was hoping someone here might be able to help me. I am fed up with PureFTPD. It never wants to respect my need to add more virtual users! pure-ftpd-1.0.20 # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/pure-ftpd.sh stop # pure-pw useradd haha -u www -d /usr/local/www/haha -f pure-ftpd.passwd # pure-pw mkdb pure-ftpd.pdb -f pure-ftpd.passwd # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/pure-ftpd.sh start This is fucked up. User "amin" was once in my pure-ftpd.passwd / pure-ftpd.pdb, but I removed him. Now I needed to readd him. But that was easier said than done. I just spent an entire hour adding, removing, adding and removing him. No matter what I did, whether I placed his user line at the top, in the middle or at the bottom of pure-ftpd.passwd his authentication failed. This happens almost every time I want to add a user. I find it to be, well, fucked up. So what I ended up doing was to change his username to "amine". Only then it worked. What's going on? All the best, Vaaf
