Why won't vsftpd let me log in with a virtual user account?
I'm trying to configure virtual FTP users along with real users on a server. I installed VSFTP and it works fine. I tried to follow this tutorial: http://howto.gumph.org/content/setup-virtual-users-and-directories-in-vsftpd/
However, when I try to login via FTP, the login fails. I solved the problem by creating a real user on the machine called "jjames", but I would like it to work without the real user.
My .htaccess file is in /etc/vsftpd/passwd, I tried creating it with and without the -m flag with the virtual user jjames.
This is my configuration information...
