Re: [Nss-mysql-users] Proftpd not authenticating nss-mysql users

[Dragiša Durić]

  I also had this problem with proftpd auth until five minutes ago.
While collecting info for this list, I've found and solved real problem.

  Proftpd defaults to /etc/passwd auth, regardless of PAM settings.
until one sets PersistentPasswd to off. Add this to proftpd.conf:

AuthPAM                         On
AuthPAMConfig                   ftp
AuthPAMAuthoritative            Off
PersistentPasswd                Off

  nss-mysql, behind PAM, does it well.
