Greetings,
When logging into my VSFTPD server, my clients recieve this:
220 (vsFTPd 2.0.5)
Name (------): user
331 Please specify the password.
Password:
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection
Login failed.
vsftpd logs show that everything went ok:
Sat Sep 12 15:52:02 2009 [pid 1131] CONNECT: Client ""
Sat Sep 12 15:52:02 2009 [pid 1131] FTP response: Client "", "220
(vsFTPd 2.0.5)"
Sat Sep 12 15:52:04 2009 [pid 1131] FTP command: Client "", "USER
user"
Sat Sep 12 15:52:04 2009 [pid 1131] [user] FTP response: Client "",
"331 Please specify the password."
Sat Sep 12 15:52:06 2009 [pid 1131] [user] FTP command: Client "",
"PASS <password>"
Sat Sep 12 15:52:06 2009 [pid 1130] [user] OK LOGIN: Client ""
/etc/shells is correct, there is no chroot user list involved, there
are no pam-auth error events in /var/log/secure.
In fact, just for giggles, i made all of the possible auth errors that
i know of and they generally provide a very explicit error: "530
Login incorrect."
I have restricted the port range for passv and opened iptables,
ip_conntrack_ftp (sp?) is loaded, and port 20 and 21 are opened.
Anyone seen this similar?
