Thanks! Interestingly, this shows an issue with the password; the
server doesn't like it for some reason. I was hoping that the server
logging would show the reason. Are you using debug level 10 (-d10
command-line option, or "DebugLevel 10" in your config file)?

Cheers,
TJ

I have configured proftpd to accept public key auth. But, when
attempting to log in using an account that is configured for such auth.
I'm getting : permission denied (publickey,password)
Suggestions?

In working with the OP off-list, he discovered that the SSH private key
had been renamed on the client side, causing the publickey
authentication to fail unexpectedly. Using verbose client logging (e.g.
`sftp -vvv ...`) revealed the issue. Once that was corrected, publickey
authentication using proftpd+mod_sftp worked as expected.

Cheers,
TJ
