Proftpd won’t work. . .

[RobotDeathSquad]

I’m not sure what the problem is, I get the following errors:

When I try to ftp in, I get “Connection Refused”

When I run it from the CLI, I get:
[xserve1:~] admin% /usr/local/sbin/proftpd
xserve1.blazing-media.com – unable to set uid to 0, current uid: 501

I don’t have any DNS set up yet, but I’m trying to login with the IP. I dunno if that makes any difference. And the root for the user is /Library/WebServer/Documents/ so the other problem mentioned shouldn’t matter.

Thanks for any help,

Ok, when I do that, I get what it says in the Article, but I still get a connection refused when I try to Ftp in.

Wait, does the FTP user also have to be a real user in Netinfo? If so, what’s the point of doing users via MySQL?
