Cannot login to ftpd

- Subject: Cannot login to ftpd
I've seen this discussed before, but haven't been able to find a resolution
yet. I have set up the ftp service in xinetd as follows:
service ftp
{
socket_type = stream
wait = no
server = /usr/sbin/in.ftpd
log_on_success += DURATION USERID
log_on_failure += USERID
user = ianb
}
I have set the CYGWIN environment variable to ntsec. My passwd file contains
the following line:
ianb::1000:513:Ian
Boisvert,U-IANB\ianb,S-1-5-21-1220945662-1383384898-842925246-1000:/home/ian
b:/bin/bash
I have a /etc/shells file that contains /bin/bash. I run xinetd from the
command line. From another console I run ftp and try to connect to
127.0.0.1. I enter my username, 'ianb', and my password, and I get and error
stating login incorrect.
I'm stumped. If anyone can offer a suggestion, I would appreciate it.
Ian.
