[Bug 869684] Re: 530 login incorrect error after upgrade

[Robie Basak]

** Description changed:

  After upgrade, vsftpd no longer works. Attempts to log in fail with a
  PAM authentication failure.
  
  Workarounds: purging and reinstalling vsftpd has worked for some people,
  but not others.
  
  Bug status: Reason unknown. No steps to reproduce have been found. Until
  we figure out how a developer can reproduce the problem, or what is
  different about the system after a workaround has worked for someone,
  unfortunately this bug isn't going to make any progress.
  
+ Request to reporters: if this bug affects you, please take a copy of
+ your /var/log/auth.log, /etc/vsftpd.conf, /etc/pam.d/* and the output of
+ the commands "getent passwd ftp" and "getent group ftp" BEFORE
+ attempting a workaround. If you then manage to fix the problem, please
+ repeat and then post a before/after comparison of these files and
+ commands to this bug (for the log file, just what appeared before for a
+ previously failed attempt and what appears now for a successful
+ attempt).
+ 
  ORIGINAL REPORT:
  
  After upgrading to Oneiric, any attempt to login to my vsftpd server
  fails with a 530 login incorrect error. This occurs with both local user
  and anonymous logins. There is a pam_ldap error in the system log file,
  if that helps. Attached is my vsftpd.conf file.
