I setup a box for a friend recently, and he's having a problem I've never
seen. I installed proftpd, and configured it (ie I have the
/etc/pam.d/ftp file).

Regular users can ftp in just fine, but "popusers" - users I created with
linuxconf as POP only accounts, get put in the group popusers, and have a
shell of /bin/false, and have /bin/false added to /etc/shells - cannot.

This is the error that gets logged when they try ftp in.

PAM_pwdb: get passwd; pwdb: request not recognized

I've checked the archives, but don't see a match.

Anyone know what the problem is?
