Ed: this is a classic example of why one should never give geeks a
straightforward problem to solve:-) The problem, it seems, isn't with
either Horde or Gollem. If I go to a shell prompt on my webserver system
and try running "ftp localhost" I get login failures with each and every
valid account. So, I assume if I get the unix end of it fixed the web
app will probably work fine too. Sigh.

Hi Jim,
I use ldap and have never tried with unix accounts but I don't see why
there should be any differences. It should work the same as the
command line.
Below is one of my configurations for ftp in gollem/backends.php that
will hopefully help you as a point for comparison.
If your horde login is only the userid and password and are the same as
your commandline ftp userid and password, this configuration that I use
for ldap should probably work. The root and home variables will need
to be set up for your installation. I use virtual domains in proftpd
so '/' in my case is:
/home/virtual/$vdomain/
do to my setup in proftpd. So basically this gives them access to
their homedirectory only. The same in unix could be something like
'/home/'
$backends['personalftp'] = array(
'name' => 'FTP Server',
'driver' => 'ftp',
'preferred' => '',
'hordeauth' => 'full',
'params' => array(
'root'=> '/' . Auth::getAuth(),
'home'=> '/' Auth::getAuth(),
'hostspec' => 'localhost',
// The port number of the FTP server
'port' => 21,
'pasv' => false,
),
'attributes' => array('type', 'name', 'download', 'modified', 'size',
'permission', 'owner', 'group')
);
Hope this helps,
ed
