Description Peter Kerwien 2004-06-07 13:49:37 UTC
The ftpd_banner example in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf.sample is incorrect:

# You may fully customise the login banner string:
#ftpd_banner=Welcome to blah FTP service.

There should either be '' or "" around the string value.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Remove the comment around the example
2. Use this file to configure vsftpd
3. Start vsftpd: /etc/init.d/vsftpd start

Actual Results:  
> /etc/init.d/vsftpd start
/sbin/runscript.sh: line 88: to: command not found
 * Starting vsftpd...                                                     [ ok ]

Expected Results:  
> /etc/init.d/vsftpd start
 * Starting vsftpd...                                                     [ ok ]
