Date: Sat, 28 Jan 1995 01:48:01 GMT Lines: 24 Hi. I am trying to set up anonymous FTP under FreeBSD 2.0R I followed the directions in the ftpd man pages, and almost everything works. The remaining problem is that I only ever get UID's for file ownership (ie. no names). I have tried as many different passwd file configurations in ~ftp/etc as I can think of, specifically (1) copy of /etc/passwd (2) copy of /etc/master.passwd (3) modified copy of /etc/passwd with the 10 field format Anyone know what I might be doing wrong? -coranth ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Coranth Gryphon Karma: You can't take it with you, but you can send it on ahead.
