PAM errors using vsftpd

[Rigler, Steve]

Andrew,

I can't speak for WS3, but we are using ES3 and it comes with vsftpd
(albeit an older version; 1.2.1).  We are also using NIS and I haven't
seen any dependencies on kerberos.

Subject: PAM errors using vsftpd

Hi All,

First of all, the system specs:

RHELWS v3 U2 on AMD64. Mixed *nix environment with password and disk
mapping
done using NIS (not NIS+) from a SunOS4.2 box.  I have tried to use the
ftp
program supplied with WS3, but it requires Kerberos authorisation, and
we do
not use Kerberos...

I downloaded and compiled vsftpd 2.0.1 but that just didn't want to play
at
all!  So I downloaded version 1.2.2 and unpacked it.  I've followed all
the
instructions, but I cannot start it standalone and when I configure it
using
xinetd I get PAM authorisation errors in the messages log.
Specifically:

Aug 20 11:18:37 lin03 vsftpd: PAM unable to
dlopen(/lib/security/pam_listfile.so)
Aug 20 11:18:37 lin03 vsftpd: PAM [dlerror:
/lib/security/pam_listfile.so:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory]
Aug 20 11:18:37 lin03 vsftpd: PAM adding faulty module:
/lib/security/pam_listfile.so

Now, I don't know whether this is going to make any difference, but
there
are libraries in /lib and also /lib64.  Is PAM using the right ones?
How
can I tell?

Any help would be appreciated.

Andy
