well heres the deal....
i was changing my ioftpd allaround with deleting users setting up new vfs etc,but i think i made a bad mistake...

1.i deleted the userfiles instead of deleting them in flash.. and when i try adding a new user it says user succesfully added,but when they try to login is says connection failed?
ive tried clearin cache etc but nothin seem to help..
something like this prob:

2.second prob is when i try readding the old users with old logins and pass(like the sitebot),its says:user already exits? when i do site users they dont show up there?

Im goin nuts here pls help out fellas, any help would be greatly appreciated

passwd file is cached in memory.. you need to restart daemon to flush is

treert · 07-10-2003, 09:10 AM

hmmm how do i do that?

1. Make sure that you have default.user file in users directory.
2. Make sure that each entry in passwd file has a file in users directory.
3. Remove files that do not have entries in passwd file, from users directory (excluding default.user)
