USER username (Login failed): Invalid shell: '/bin/false'Last Modified: Jun 1, 2011, 12:12 pm

If you see this error when running proftpd in debug mode:

USER username (Login failed): Invalid shell: '/bin/false'


it would likely mean that /bin/false is not listed in your /etc/shells file.


For proftpd, it shouldn't even be checking this.  Ensure you've got:


RequireValidShell       no


set in your /etc/proftpd.conf file.


Else, manually add /bin/false to /etc/shells, but this isn't the best option.
