I'm trying to upgrade a RedHat 6.2 machine to use NCFTPD (home /
personal
box)
so I can transfer files between my Window$ machine and my linux box. I'm

having
problems with wu-ftpd, and a much more clueful friend of mine suggested
that
ncftpd might solve the problem, so I downloaded it, read the install
directions
and now it still won't let me ftp into my machine. The test session
always
fails with a username / password failure. :-( I can't even ftp to
localhost as
it gives me the same error. I *do* have it pointing to /etc/passwd for
the
username/password list, as suggested in the docs. However, I'm wondering

if
maybe I shouldn't have pointed it to /etc/shadow instead????
        Thanks...
        John

Check out pure-ftpd really easy to setup and not security holes. Also
you may want to check out proftpd.
You will find them through freshmeat.net

Good luck,
Remo
