Man page "ftpusers(5)" states, that an entry "username allow" will allow access to ftpd. But every user listed in /etc/ftpusers is denied access, no matter whether there is "allow" appended to the entry or not! This is strange. Whenever I delete a user's name from that file I wish to have access to the ftpd service, that user can login - but addig the users even as "username allow" (no * in the file, nothing else but the initial users names) access is denied. I managed so far to start the ftpd via inetd - the service running from /etc/rc.conf is still impossible. But operations, not even a simple "ls", are possible since the service dies ... Either I'm some kind of dull and do not understand this brillant peice of software, or there is something really fishy. regards and nice weekend, oh
