[Muddleftpd-users] Problems with configuration of muddleftp 1.3.12.1

[Jochen Kreimer]

Hello MuddleFTPd-Users,

i am running muddleftp 1.2.10 and would like to upgrade to 1.3.12.1.
I spent several hours migrating my configuration, but authentication
still does not work.

I use muddleftp without root priviliges and need internal users.

I tried the following:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
address@hidden /tmp/ftp]$ bin/mudpasswd -p ftpd.passwd -a tom -P test
-R "" -H ""
address@hidden /tmp/ftp]$ cat ftpd.passwd
tom q19JEJTylB1.M::
address@hidden /tmp/ftp]$ cat ftpd.conf

[section] main

ftpport 3456
logstrength 63
logfile     /tmp/ftp/ftpd.log
pidfile     /tmp/ftp/ftpd.pid
scratchfile /tmp/ftp/ftpd.scratch
ipacl A:*
group users

[section] users

authmethod internal
internal_passfile /tmp/ftp/ftpd.passwd
rootdir /tmp
homedir /
access  /:ALL

address@hidden /tmp/ftp]$ bin/muddleftpd -d -v -c ftpd.conf
Testing libraries!!
Now, does snprintf work  . . . . . . . . Yes
Now, can I use double ints . . . . . . . Yes

Perhaps I missed something important in the config file. I would
be happy if someone could give me a hint solving this.
