Subject: Ques: Real users can't log in...

When a real user tries to log in, we get:

  530 Login Incorrect.
  Login Failed.

Could anyone tell me what the problem is... Anonymous users get in just 
fine... Is it the shadowed passwords??? If so, how exactly do I recompile 
the stuff to deal with this???

Any help would be greatly appreciated....

I just ran into this on one of my Ultrix machines.  I had to changed the 
config.OSTYPE file and define the ULTRIX_AUTH variable.  I bet depending on
your OS you could define the SHADOW_PASSWORD variable...
You may also have to change the makefile.OSTYPE to add needed libraries...

I hope that this helps...

Hi

Do you have an /etc/shells file?  If so does it identify by full path
name all of the shells that are in use?

Regards

Think we've isolated the problem to the fact that we need to authenticate 
our passwords with AFS... For example, a passwd entry would look like:

afsid:X:30417:40:user fullname:/home/user/whatever:/whatever/shell

Any suggestions on how to do this?

http://andrew2.andrew.cmu.edu/dist has a pointer to a wu-ftpd modified
to allow AFS authentication.
