I've set emerged proftpd, configured it to accept anonymous connections but it doesn't seem to accept ANY connections. When trying to connect from firefox (ftp://localhost), I get the following error message: "530-Unable to set anonymous privileges 530 Login incorrect" I then manually upgraded to 1.3.2rc1 and it seems to work with that (and same proftpd.conf file was used). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge proftpd 2. setup proftpd's config file 3. start proftpd 4. try to connect to it Actual Results: 530-Unable to set anonymous privileges 530 Login incorrect Expected Results: Allow login, show files. #emerge --info Portage 2.1.4.4 (default/linux/x86/2008.0, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.6.1-r0, 2.6.25-gentoo-r7 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.25-gentoo-r7 i686 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q9450 @ 2.66GHz Timestamp of tree: Sat, 30 Aug 2008 19:15:01 +0000 app-shells/bash: 3.2_p33 dev-lang/python: 2.4.4-r13, 2.5.2-r6 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r6 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.11.1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61-r2 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.0-r4 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.26 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.23-r3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -march=i686" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -march=i686" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://gentoo.inf.elte.hu/ " LANG="hu_HU" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" MAKEOPTS="-j5" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X acl acpi alsa berkdb branding bzip2 cairo cdr cli cracklib crypt cups dbus doc dri dvd dvdr dvdread eds emboss encode esd evo fam firefox fortran gdbm gif glitz gnome gpm gstreamer gtk hal hu iconv ipv6 isdnlog jpeg kde kerberos ldap libnotify mad midi mikmod mp3 mpeg mudflap ncurses nls nptl nptlonly ogg opengl openmp pam pcre pdf perl png ppds pppd python qt3 qt3support qt4 quicktime readline reflection sdl session spell spl ssl svg sysfs tcpd tiff truetype unicode usb vorbis win32codecs x86 xml xorg xv zlib" ALSA_CARDS="ali5451 als4000 atiixp atiixp-modem bt87x ca0106 cmipci emu10k1 emu10k1x ens1370 ens1371 es1938 es1968 fm801 hda-intel intel8x0 intel8x0m maestro3 trident usb-audio via82xx via82xx-modem ymfpci" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse evdev" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="fbdev glint i810 mach64 mga neomagic nv r128 radeon savage sis tdfx trident vesa vga via vmware voodoo" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, FFLAGS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY #cat /etc/proftpd.conf (I started proftpd with "-c /etc/proftpd.conf" ServerType standalone DefaultServer on Umask 022 ServerName "0.0.0.0" ServerIdent on "My FTPD" ServerAdmin Admin@this.domain.topdomain IdentLookups off UseReverseDNS off Port 21 PassivePorts 49152 65534 #MasqueradeAddress None TimesGMT off MaxInstances 30 MaxLoginAttempts 3 TimeoutLogin 300 TimeoutNoTransfer 120 TimeoutIdle 120 DisplayLogin welcome.msg User nobody Group nobody DirFakeUser off nobody DirFakeGroup off nobody DefaultTransferMode binary AllowForeignAddress off AllowRetrieveRestart on AllowStoreRestart on DeleteAbortedStores off TransferRate RETR 30 TransferRate STOR 40 TransferRate STOU 40 TransferRate APPE 40 SystemLog /var/log/secure RequireValidShell off #gp_random_username_length 6 #gp_random_password_length 6 #gp_randomize_case lower #gp_useradd_homedir_path /var/ftp #gp_html_path /var/www/html/ftp.htm #gp_welcome_name welcome.msg <IfModule mod_tls.c> TLSEngine off TLSRequired off TLSVerifyClient off TLSProtocol TLSv1 TLSLog /var/log/proftpd_tls.log </IfModule> <IfModule mod_ratio.c> Ratios off SaveRatios off RatioFile "/restricted/proftpd_ratios" RatioTempFile "/restricted/proftpd_ratios_temp" CwdRatioMsg "Please upload first!"

Hm, it looks like that version had problems with USE=acl http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-647162.html Thanks for the report, assigning to maintainer
1.3.2_rc2 has been stable for some weeks, and 1.3.2 is going the same way soon. So this one looks like fixed, reopen of course if it's not ;)
