[ProFTPD-Devel] ProFTPd getpwnam/uid etc

[Dave <da...@cc...>]

I am curious to know whether ProFTPd uses the OS's C library to perform
user/pass lookups or whether it reads /etc/passwd or shadow directly with
fgetpwXXX ?

While browsing the source I cannot follow the auth sequence completely to
determine whether or not the standard getpwnam and friends are being called
or not.

I make use of a custom NSS library which is called from glibc but if an
application reads directly from the /etc/passwd then it obviously would not
be used.



Thanks for any information
