It needs pwd.db to properly set the user id in anon ftp. I have tried the following: pwd_mkdb -d /home/craigs /home/craigs/passwd to make a password db out of a small password file. It tells me the file has a corrupt entry or is not in a proper format. Is that the correct syntax for pwd_mkdb or does that need to run under root? If that doesn't work anyone know where I can get a FreeBSD "ls" that uses plain text?
