>  dispatching auth request "auth" to module mod_auth_pam

I finally managed to spend some quality time with my Mac OS X on this
issue, and was able to get proftpd to successfully authenticate a user
created post-10.3.

If your Mac has an /etc/pam.d/ftpd file, then all you should need is to
add the following to your proftpd.conf, and restart proftpd:

  <IfModule mod_auth_pam.c>
    AuthPAMConfig ftpd
  </IfModule>

That's it.  If you don't have an /etc/pam.d/ftpd file, then create one,
with the following contents:

  auth       sufficient     pam_securityserver.so
  auth       required       pam_deny.so
  account    required       pam_permit.so
  password   required       pam_deny.so
  session    required       pam_permit.so

and then use the above mentioned <IfModule> block.

Hope this helps,
TJ
