NAME
pam_ftp - PAM module for anonymous access module
SYNOPSIS
pam_ftp.so [debug] [ignore] [users=XXX,YYY,...]
DESCRIPTION
pam_ftp is a PAM module which provides a pluggable anonymous ftp mode of access.
This module intercepts the user's name and password. If the name is ftp or anonymous, the user's password is broken up at the @ delimiter into a PAM_RUSER and a PAM_RHOST part; these pam-items being set accordingly. The username (PAM_USER) is set to ftp. In this case the module succeeds. Alternatively, the module sets the PAM_AUTHTOK item with the entered password and fails.
This module is not safe and easily spoofable.
OPTIONS
debug
ignore
ftp=XXX,YYY,...

EXAMPLES
Add the following line to /etc/pam.d/ftpd to handle ftp style anonymous login:
#
# ftpd; add ftp-specifics. These lines enable anonymous ftp over
# standard UN*X access (the listfile entry blocks access to
# users listed in /etc/ftpusers)
#
auth sufficient pam_ftp.so
auth required pam_unix.so use_first_pass
auth required pam_listfile.so \
