FTP Server per user not working

[maxse...@gmail.com]

Device: DLINK DNS-323

Issue: I set up a test account with the following credentials:

TestAccount:Password123

I tried to save settings, then try to login to FTP using those above credentials. It says 530 Login incorrect every time in all clients. I made sure inetd has FTP checked and configured.

However, using the credentials below lets me login to some folder:

root:<my admin password> also anonymous login works

Can someone tell me how I can get per user FTP working like my TestAccount? Thank you very much

I can't reproduce your results.

Have you used the webUI to create the new user account Setup->Users? Have you specified the same "nick name" as the "Full name" there? If not, you should login using the "nickname" -- that's the linux user name, read the tooltip.

I have created a user with TestAccount as full name and TestAccount as nick name and Password123, then:

jcard@silver:~> ftp dns-325

Connected to dns-325.homenet.

220 (vsFTPd 3.0.3)

Name (dns-325:foobar): TestAccount

331 Please specify the password.

Password:  

230 Login successful.

Remote system type is UNIX.

Using binary mode to transfer files.

ftp> pwd

Remote directory: /mnt/md1/Users/TestAccount

ftp>

 

and the ftp server entry in the System Log (System->Utilities, View Logs) says:

Sep 18 17:37:17 DNS-325 ftp.info vsftpd[1964]: [TestAccount] OK LOGIN: Client "192.168.1.115"
