HI All,

I installed pure-ftpd-1.0.28 with authd on my achine but's NOT working fine.
Following are steps are followed:
1. I downloaded pure-ftpd-1.0.28 form pur ftp site.
2.gunzip pure-ftpd-1.0.28.tar.gz
3.tar -xvf pure-ftpd-1.0.28.tar
4.Go to directory using cd pure-ftpd-1.0.28
5../configure --prefix=/path/pure-ftpd-1.0.28 --with-extauth
6. make check
7.make install
Also tried with ./configure --prefix=/path/pure-ftpd-1.0.28 --with-everything.

Now i start pure ftpd with my external program
./pure-authd -s /var/run/ftpd.sock -r /path/runauth.sh &

After that ./pure-ftpd -l extauth:/var/run/ftpd.sock &

My runauth.sh just echoes
auth_ok:1
uid:42
gid:21
dir:/home/j
end

If i tried to connect to ftp as follows:

# ftp localhost
Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1).

It's just script file which authenticates the user but till it's not authenticating.
Please let me know your suggestion. Is there any problem in installtaion or it's authd process issue?

What is your distro? Some have automated install procedures that catch dependencies, do the make for you, and do any related environmental and configuration changes. For example, Gentoo has a complete emerge system for that.

It sounds like your installation is just not complete yet. You have added the core system but are probably missing some other dependencies or setup steps.
