CentOS - Jan 2009 - proftpd question

Hi

I am using proftpd in 5.2

When I change the user from /home/userA to /ftp/userA
in this file /etc/passwd

eg:
userA:x:502:502::/ftp/userA:/bin/bash

After change this passwd file, I can't logon as ftp

but ssh is fine

Can you help?

Thank you

you mean as anonymous user ftp or you cannot login *via* ftp at all?
