Hi,

	I have recently installed shadow, however ftp no longer appears to
work. At the ftp prompt it will ask a user for a password and then reject
any entries. Also root can now ftp to the machine (the only user who can) 
despite having an entry in /etc/ftpusers to stop this. I was wondering if
anybody has encountered this problem and how I can go about fixing it....

Any help will appreciated.
