Subject: log and login problem

After much trouble setting up the wu-ftpd, I am at my last hurdle, I hope.

Only two problems now remain.

1.  Real users are denied ftp access.  They get bounced out right after they
    enter their userid.  (I have an /etc/shells file).

2.  The ftp traffic doesn't get logged though ckconfig returns no error.

I appreciate all the help I have received so far.  When everything finally
gets to work, I will summarize.  Thanks again, to all who helped me.

And their shell is in it.. And that the daemon has the same idea of shadow
passwords that your OS has.

Check the xferlog setting in pathnames.h

I'd love that summary for the FAQ.
