In the book Managing INTERNET Information Service on pages 62-63
there is a description of how to use sublogins. Sublogins are pass-
word-protected identities that anonymous users can assume to gain
access to retricted parts of thr FTP archive.

I have tried to use sublogin on Version wu-2.4. But it is not
working. I get the following error when I try:

ftp> user hamproj
530 Can't change user from guest login.
Login failed.

Is it not possible to use sublogin in the WU-ftp-server?

For wu-ftpd, sublogins refers to the 'autogroup' and/or the 'site group' 
mechanisms that are described in that book starting on page 80.
