Hi,

I have been reading and trying the guide to setup a sftp server https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?resources/how-to-set-up-proftpd-as-a-secure-sftp-server.10/ . A really good guide, however I am unable to login

I want to use password in a first but it fails, "Permission denied (password)"

My user files:
ftp.users:
test:$1$SEc37bdP$ZImyCNN9.VE2n1up9qYvZ0:1001:1000::/mnt/media/:/sbin/nologin

ftp.groups:
media:*:1000:media

My proftpd.conf is exactly the same as in the guide (I tried to remove publickey option in auth methods after it failed the first times)

sftp.log:
2017-07-22 11:58:01,873 mod_sftp/0.9.9[11550]: + Session server hostkey: ssh-rsa

2017-07-22 11:58:02,149 mod_sftp/0.9.9[11550]: disconnecting client (received EOF)

Any suggestions or tips?

Thanks in advance
Niklas

If you're unable to login and followed the guide word for word, then your password is incorrect.

Have you tried using SSH keys to see if that works?

yes I followed word for word, and no I am not able to login via ssh keys.

Is it necessary to change ownership and permissions on /usr/local/etc/proftpd/authorized_keys/media ?
