ftp problems

ok folks, hopefully you can shed some light on this for me.

I have wu-ftpd running on a Mandrake 7.2 box. No matter what I do (ie. editing ftpusers, allow/deny files, etc, etc...) I cannot gain access to that machine by way of FTP. I consistently get errors stating "530 Login Incorrect".

I've used several different users and passwords with the same results.

Any ideas??

Did you restart ftpd or inetd after making changes to the ftp related config files?

All services have been restarted. This is a problem that I haven't been able to work with much recently until today and since the changes were made last, the system has been rebooted several times (over the course of probably 2 weeks), hence all services have been restarted.

Have you checked your log? See what is being logged when you try to login to the ftp server? Also Make sure that you have set a valid shell for the account.
