Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers Cannot ftp from EXTERNAL sender Post 303042763 by rbatte1 on Monday 6th of January 2020 09:39:12 AM

Have you added this account to /etc/ftpusers by any chance? Confusingly that is a list of users NOT permitted to login with ftp.

Another thought is that the account might be locked. Do you get any output from pam_tally2 ?



Kind regards,
Robin
