RE: ftpcmd.y -- syntax error

[Jacques Dejean]

Hello Alfonso,

When I use the pre-built binary such as wu-ftpd-2.6.1-18.iX86.rpm (either
i386, i586, or i686),
I get a list of required dependencies.  One particular dependency is
/etc/pam.d/system-auth.
I have searched the mailing lists for a working solution.  Even by
duplicating the /etc/pam.d/login file to /etc/pam.d/system-auth and adding
the "service=system-auth" option, the install "rpm -I
wu-ftpd-2.6.2.iX86.rpm' still fails.

Any suggestions?  

BTW, with the wu-ftpd-2.6.2-8.i386.rpm, I get similar dependency errors.

I appreciate your assistance.

Perhaps I am oversimplifying, but is there any reason you can't use a
pre-compiled distribution?  Seems to me that using one of those would solve
your problems pretty much instantly.
