The shell for both is the same and the user can ssh onto both machines and on both systems can get to the home directory first time with no errors. No errors in ANY logs, which is why it is blowing my mind, the 1st server just worked, and this second 1 is just driving me up the wall.
Just to verify, have you checked /etc/shells on each server too? Oh, might be worth checking /etc/nsswitch.conf too to ensure the user auth's local in both cases. If so and it's looking OK then I'd probably start the daemon manually under strace on each system and compare what that shows on login. Something like the following may be a good place to start: [root@willspc ~]# strace -f /usr/sbin/vsftpd 2>&1 | grep read Will. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
