Full Version: Authentication problem

Hello guys. I'm new here so I hope I'm in correct section to ask my question. I have AWS Linux Instance with Sentora 1.0.3 installed on it. Everything works perfect except ftp issues. I can connect to ftp with filezilla as sftp://hostname and my local usename/pwd, default ubuntu and root users are working like it supposed to. But when I create ftp user for domain, for example zadmin_user, filezilla can't connect to it with ftp/sftp protocol. Problem is like that:

Status: Connecting to 52.32.24.99...
Response: fzSftp started, protocol_version=8
Command: open "zadmin_user@xx.xx.xx.xx" 22
Command: Pass: **********
Error: Authentication failed.
Error: Critical error: Could not connect to server

I also want to mention that when I connect to server with SSH and ftp with "ftp localhost" command, it connects perfectly with that user I created:

root@blablabla:~# ftp localhost

Connected to localhost.
220 ProFTPD 1.3.5rc3 Server (Sentora FTP Server) [::1]
Name (localhost:root): zadmin_user
331 Password required for zadmin_user
Password:
230 User zadmin_user logged in
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.

I want to ask some questions:

1) How can I solve connection problem permanently? I don't want to configure some files each time after I create ftp user

2) How can I completely disable sftp connectivity in proftpd? I want all users to connect with unsecure ftp (currently I can't connect to ftp server at filezilla even with ubuntu or root users with ftp, but I can with sftp)

Thanks for attention and sorry for noob questions. Will wait for your reply
Use ftp on port 21 which is standard for all ftp users made with sentora, not port 22
