Now, I compiled pure-ftpd again with paying attention at this param, but
I had the same problem.

Sorry for the mistake, I meant -O.

Yes, it can create and write a normal plan file, but not in the fifo.
It doesn't get me any errors on log or somewhere. It's strange because I
can't see how pure-fptd let out log strings to FIFO, but I can't get
they by FIFO whit cat or something because it logs normally on a plain
file. Someone can test it other me?

FIFO is owned by root with 755 permission.

Distro is a Fedora Core 2.
