Hi, I switched from Fedora to OpenSuse, but I have a great problem with the FTP server.
The anonymous login works correctly, but when I want to log in with an own user from /etc/passwd it gives me a 530 error.
Well, I configured many times the FTP server in Fedora and I never get anything similar. I repeat the same steps in OpenSuse and it doesn’t work >:( .
I’m really angry because the FTP server is crucial for me.
Well, this is my /etc/vsftpd.conf file.
# Example config file /etc/vsftpd.conf
#
# The default compiled in settings are fairly paranoid. This sample file
# loosens things up a bit, to make the ftp daemon more usable.
# Please see vsftpd.conf.5 for all compiled in defaults.
#
# If you do not change anything here you will have a minimum setup for an
# anonymus FTP server.
#
# READ THIS: This example file is NOT an exhaustive list of vsftpd options.
# Please read the vsftpd.conf.5 manual page to get a full idea of vsftpd's
# capabilities.

And this is my stupid user. It’s home folder is in my home folder, but the 530 it’s not a permission error, it’s a login error…
invitado:x:1001:49:Invitado del FTP:/home/edu/invitado:/bin/ftp
The group is correct, the FTP group has the number 49.
I ask for help to the OpenSuse community.
I’m downloading an ISO image of Fedora to install it on a virtual machine and see what I’m doing bad.
