Authentication issues

Question

Hello,

So I'm having a strange issue with CompleteFTP server. It goes as follows:

3 windows users are created/imported: user1, user2 & user3. Each user has its separate home folder. All 3 users set up to authenticate through a DSA 1024-bit key. When trying to logon with user1 & user2, the server correctly expects the key (tested by trying to logon with the Windows-password only). However, for user3, only supplying the Windows password does give a successful login. Of course this should not be the case.

Apart from the usernames that are different & the different home folders, all 3 users are identical. Could someone please explain why this behaviour is happening?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Can you please produce a clean set of logs (as in http://www.enterprisedt.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3441) that shows the 3 users logging in, zip and email them to support at enterprisedt dot com.

Please note that Windows users will *always* need the Windows password supplied to authenticate.
