hi all,

I have installed proftpd 1.2.8 on my T64 V5.1A machine
with C2 security turned on.

Although T64 can accept password longer than 8 chars.,
'proftpd' always returns with incorrect ftp login if the
password has more than 8 characters.

Has anyone experienced the same problem and is there a simple
fix for it? I still want proftpd to rely on the T64's password
file, ie not using it own one.

Thanks for any help.

Fred.
