I checked my own vsftpd installation now, what are your
settings for userlist_deny? The manpage states:
userlist_deny
This option is examined if userlist_enable is activated. If you
set this setting to NO, then users will be denied login unless
they are explicitly listed in the file specified by
userlist_file. When login is denied, the denial is issued
before the user is asked for a password.
Default: YES
So I guess you have this set to NO?
Cheerse
Nico
