Hello List,
I'm having problems to run pure-ftpd within my vservers. I asked about
that in the pure-ftpd list and got the following answer:

When the libcap library is installed, Pure-FTPd will use some specific
Linux system calls to reduce its field of action.
The error you get probably means that your kernel refused to change
capabilities.

I'm running everything on Debian 3.0 woody and installed pure-ftpd over
apt-get. I tried it with "S_CAPS="CAP_SYS_RESOURCE" but this did not
the trick. Any suggestions? Thank you very much.
Regards
Hans-Juergen
