Would you, or anyone else, happen to have a sample of the line in the
/etc/syslog.conf to setup logging from wu-ftpd?
I added the ftp user in /etc/passwd and now it at least gets to the "guest
login ok" prompt and allows me to input my email address before it kicks me
out.

thanks!

possible causees:
  /etc/ftphosts denied access .. look in syslog
  /etc/ftpusers denied access .. also logged
  /etc/ftpaccess denied access (limit, etc) .. logged as well
  Bad shell .. logged with ftpusers

No user 'ftp' in system's /etc/passwd
