VSFTP local user works, but PAM users Permission Denied
1
I am attempting to configure vsftp to use PAM to authenticate virtual users on my Arch server. It seems so straight forward, I must be missing something simple.
Configuration
- local user virtualftp in group virtualftp
- folders /srv/ftp and /srv/ftp/test1 owned by virtualftp:virtualftp
- PAM user test1 password test1p in /etc/vsftpd_login.db
/etc/pam.d/vsftpd
auth required pam_userdb.so db=/etc/vsftpd_login crypt=hash
account required pam_userdb.so db=/etc/vsftpd_login crypt=hash
session required pam_loginuid.so
/etc/vsftp.conf
anonymous_enable=NO
local_enable=YES
write_enable=YES
local_umask=022
dirmessage_enable=YES
xferlog_enable=YES
connect_from_port_20=YES
ftpd_banner=Welcome to MCID's FTP server.
chroot_local_user=YES
chroot_list_enable=YES
chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd.chroot_list
listen=YES
# nopriv_user=virtualftp
# SSL Configuration
# ssl_enable=YES
# allow_anon_ssl=NO
# force_local_data_ssl=NO
# force_local_logins_ssl=YES
# ssl_tlsv1=YES
# ssl_sslv2=YES
# ssl_sslv3=YES
# rsa_cert_file=/etc/ssl/certs/vsftpd.pem
# rsa_private_key_file=/etc/ssl/certs/vsftpd.pem
# Passive Port Range
pasv_min_port=49152
pasv_max_port=65534
# Added settings for PAM virtualftp logins
pam_service_name=vsftpd
guest_enable=YES
guest_username=virtualftp
virtual_use_local_privs=YES
# Private folders for virtual users
local_root=/srv/ftp/$USER
user_sub_token=$USER
Currently I can login with sftp://theherk@sftp.example.com, my local user just fine. However, if I attempt to login with test1, I get permission denied. What am I missing or confused about?
