Package: vsftpd
Version: 2.0.3-1
Severity: normal
in Line 46 of /usr/share/doc/vsftpd/EXAMPLE/VIRTUAL_USERS/README.gz
cp vsftpd.pam /etc/pam.d/ftp
But, as indicated in vsftpd.conf(5), the default setting is
pam_service_name=vsftpd
So, we need change the document to
cp vsftpd.pam /etc/pam.d/vsftpd
in order to have virtual-user ftp work properly.
Otherwise, there comes the pam authentication oops (/var/log/auth.log):
Apr 4 10:45:22 server vsftpd: (pam_unix) check pass; user unknown
Apr 4 10:45:22 server vsftpd: (pam_unix) authentication failure;
logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=
BTW: this *is* a minor problem, but since many people asked it in various web
forums and got no answer, I think it deserves a fix under the severity normal.

Hi,
the current README contains this now:
[...]
cp vsftpd.pam /etc/pam.d/ftp
(Note - if you set pam_service_name to e.g. vsftpd instead, you'll need
to copy
to /etc/pam.d/vsftpd).
[...]
I think this is clear enough.
Regards,
Daniel
