Hi Jerry,

Replying to a message of Jerry Gause to Mike Burgett:

I wonder how that happened. I just provided some feedback during testing.

 JG> Anonymous logins work just fine.

If that's the file I'm thinking of, it's a list of user names that should
be denied access, things like root, daemon, etc....  Users you want to have
access shouldn't be in there.

Thanks,
Mike
