------- Additional Comments From to...@st...  2004-10-13 15:02 -------
I am on FreeBSD 5.2.1, using an NIS domain and running version 1.2.9 (not
1.2.10rc3 as in this bug report) and I am experiencing the exact same issue.

PersistentPasswd                off
AuthPAMAuthoritative           off


I've tried both of those directives in my proftpd.conf file with no luck.  No
matter what I still get a bad password.  I've researched all over the net, and
the PersistentPasswd directive SHOULD fix it, but in every case if the person
was using FreeBSD eventually the user gave up and used a different FTP server.

There is some validity to this bug report, even if the cause isn't correct. 
Here are some log excerpts:


First my extended log:

localhost UNKNOWN nobody [13/Oct/2004:13:48:59 +0000] "USER numbski" 331 -
localhost UNKNOWN nobody [13/Oct/2004:13:49:01 +0000] "PASS (hidden)" 530 -
localhost UNKNOWN nobody [13/Oct/2004:13:49:03 +0000] "QUIT" 221 -

...and auth.log

Oct 13 13:36:33 zeus proftpd[9409]: zeus.stg-stl.net (localhost[127.0.0.1]) -
USER numbski (Login failed): Incorrect password.

This is after verifying that the username was indeed correct, login to the
console was successful and ssh was successful.  If I add the user back to the
local system, login is successful, but if I remove the local user and add them
to the NIS domain, you get a password failure.
