There is a line in /etc/pam.d/ftp: auth required pam_listfile.so item=user sense=deny file=/etc/ftpusers onerr=succeed which causes a warning in log like this: proftpd: in openpam_dynamic(): /lib/security/pam_listfile.so: No such file or directory /lib/security/pam_listfile.so comes from sys-libs/pam on Linux. There is a /lib/security/pam_ftpusers.so on FreeBSD which comes from sys-freebsd/freebsd-pam-modules with other syntax. This line probably should be: auth required pam_ftpusers.so no_warn disallow It works for me, but in that case I get another warnings: proftpd: in openpam_dispatch(): pam_ftpusers.so: no pam_sm_authenticate() proftpd: in openpam_check_error_code(): pam_sm_authenticate(): unexpected return value 4 Reproducible: Always
Using "account" instead of "auth" is correct. I've just added the fix into the tree. + 30 Nov 2013; Naohiro Aota <naota@gentoo.org> ftpbase-0.01-r2.ebuild: + Use pam_ftpusers on FreeBSD. #462204
