I've seen this discussed before, but haven't been able to find a resolution yet. I have set up the ftp service in xinetd as follows: service ftp { socket_type = stream wait = no server = /usr/sbin/in.ftpd log_on_success += DURATION USERID log_on_failure += USERID user = ianb } I have set the CYGWIN environment variable to ntsec. My passwd file contains the following line: ianb::1000:513:Ian Boisvert,U-IANB\ianb,S-1-5-21-1220945662-1383384898-842925246-1000:/home/ian b:/bin/bash I have a /etc/shells file that contains /bin/bash. I run xinetd from the command line. From another console I run ftp and try to connect to 127.0.0.1. I enter my username, 'ianb', and my password, and I get and error stating login incorrect.
I'm stumped. If anyone can offer a suggestion, I would appreciate it. Ian. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
