[SOLVED] Help with getting FTP working again
[SOLVED] Help with getting FTP working again
So today I tried uploading a php doc to my server and noticed that I kept getting failed attempts. I have tried a couple of possible solutions on vestacp forums. Here is what I tried so far:
What ever information yalls need I will get it for you, I just want my ftp back ahaha
- Adding "/usr/sbin/nologin" to the doc "/etc/shells" - Did not work
- Edited the vsftpd.conf and altered "pam_service_name=ftp" - broke it more and now says cannot establish connection I did switch it back but still says no connection
What ever information yalls need I will get it for you, I just want my ftp back ahaha

Re: [URGENT] Help with getting FTP working again
UPDATE: I have connection back now throwing 530 errors again (Login Incorrect)
I think it was due to the number of failed login attempts but still having issue.

So after trying multiple things I finally found the fix to the issue!
Navigate and open with text editor
Once in there you will see this:
In that file you want to comment out one line:
You should no longer get 530 login errors. I think the problem was I did a server update and it must have reconfigured that file?
Navigate and open with text editor
Code: Select all
sudo vi /etc/pam.d/vsftpd
Code: Select all
#%PAM-1.0
session optional pam_keyinit.so force revoke
auth required pam_listfile.so item=user sense=deny file=/etc/vsftpd/ftpusers onerr=succeed
auth required pam_shells.so
auth include password-auth
account include password-auth
session required pam_loginuid.so
session include password-auth
Code: Select all
#auth required pam_shells.so

I am having the same issue but that solution did not work for me sadly. Still getting 530 errors.
