Strange behaviour with ftpd on Unixware 7
Thorin
Hi, I'm experimentig strange behaviours on an Unixware machine: when I
try to connect using any other user account than the one named aspect
I'm always getting a "530 Login incorrect." error message.
root@machine: # uname -a
UnixWare machine 5 7.1.1 i386 x86at SCO UNIX_SVR5
This is what's happening when I'm connecting through the aspect login name:
$ ftp -v machine
Connected to machine.mydomain.it.

patches) ready.

as you may see, there's no .netrc file into his home directory but at
the same, when I'm trying to connect as any other user...

the same isn't happening while connecting to another similar machine
running identical OS and ftp server versions). Here they are some
details about the /etc/ftp* files, which are pretty the same as the ones
on the other working machine i.e. they are quite empty, no users in
ftpsuers nor ftpaccess or ftpgroups!!

I've tried googling but it was quite difficult finding out any useful
links so I'm asking if someone could redirect me to some
hint/RTFM/other, TIA.
