Dear All,

        I am having a similar problem too. I followed the config setting provide by Mr. Perez and modified some possible error. I still cannot login my ftp server. Following is my proftpd.conf. Please help me to figure out the problem. Thanks a lot!!

 

# This is a basic ProFTPD configuration file (rename it to

# 'proftpd.conf' for actual use.  It establishes a single server

# and a single anonymous login.  It assumes that you have a user/group

# "nobody" and "ftp" for normal operation and anon.

 

ServerName                      "ProFTPD Default Installation"

ServerType                      standalone

DefaultServer                   on

 

# Port 21 is the standard FTP port

Port                            2121

 

# Don't use IPv6 support by default.

UseIPv6                         off

 

# Umask 022 is a good standard umask to prevent new dirs and files

# from being group and world writable.

Umask                           022

 

# To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum number of child processes

# to 30.  If you need to allow more than 30 concurrent connections

# at once, simply increase this value.  Note that this ONLY works

# in standalone mode, in inetd mode you should use an inetd server

# that allows you to limit maximum number of processes per service

# (such as xinetd).

MaxInstances                    30

 

# Set the user and group under which the server will run.

User                    username

Group                   groupname

 

 

PassivePorts            40000 40999

# To cause every FTP user to be "jailed" (chrooted) into their home

# directory, uncomment this line.

#DefaultRoot ~

 

CreateHome              on dirmode 700

 

# Normally, we want files to be overwriteable.

AllowOverwrite          on

 

AllowStoreRestart       on

 

 

# Bar use of SITE CHMOD by default

<Limit SITE_CHMOD>

  DenyAll

</Limit>

 

<Limit RETR>

  DenyAll

</Limit>

#SQLNamedQuery                   LookupGalaxyUser  SELECT "email,password,'12345','1234','/home/username/galaxyftp/%U','/bin/bash' FROM galaxy_user WHERE email='%U'"

SQLNamedQuery    LookupGalaxyUser  SELECT "email, (CASE WHEN substring(password from 1 for 6) = 'PBKDF2' THEN substring(password from 38 for 32) ELSE password END) AS password,'12345','1234','/home/username/galaxyftp/%U','/bin/bash' FROM galaxy_user WHERE email='%U'"

SQLNamedQuery    GetUserSalt SELECT "(CASE WHEN SUBSTRING (password from 1 for 6) = 'PBKDF2' THEN SUBSTRING (password from 21 for 16) END) AS salt FROM galaxy_user WHERE email='%U'"

 

 

 

I still get the message of authentication failed.

Any suggestion on my configuration file, Thanks.
