[ale] ftp question

[esoteric at denali.atlnet.com (Wandered Inn)]

Okay,  stupid question.  I've got Mandrake 7.something running on this
other box.  I'm trying to permit a user who has a login on that same
machine to ftp to that machine.  This user is not in /etc/ftpusers and
is in /etc/ftphosts (user-id *) which, as I understand it, says he
should be able to ftp in from anywhere.

I've got the same set up for my id.  I can ftp in, when he does, he gets
login failed.  I've tried logging in as him as well, no dice.

What am I missing??  That is, besides enough sleep...
