OS X Server 10.4.4 Breaks Pure-FTPD?

  I was running PureFTPD 1.0.20 fine on 10.4.3.  I upgraded to  
10.4.4, and it worked fine until I started to get a little bit of  
traffic.   Then, all my users would connect (via Active FTP),

My secure.log shows the process authorized the user, but then the FTP  
log just shows everybody sitting idle until the FTP client would time  
them out. Eventually, the server stops accepting connections and  
locks up.

So the log looks like this:

Jan 20 22:01:4 myserver pure-ftpd (?@clientip) [INFO] New connection  
from cleintip
Jan 20 22:01:40 myserver pure-ftpd: (?@clientip) [DEBUG] Command  
[user] [username]
Jan 20 22:01:41 myserver pure-ftpd: (?@clientip) [DEBUG] Command  
[pass] [<*>]

Five minutes later they time out.  Let me reiterate that the server  
was working properly for a little while before this occurred.

I rebooted, and got the same behavior after about 20 minutes. The  
same a third time.  I finally restored back to an image of Mac OS X  
Server 10.4.3 and now everything is OK again.

Anybody else seen this? Any idea what might be causing it?

I run standalone using  -AEBHdx4 -o -I 5 -c 999 -L 50000:10 -U  
027:027 -p 5000:5999. I authenticate to the OS X Server via PAM,  
which seems to work with or without -l pam, so maybe I just _think_  
I'm using PAM.

Any thoughts appreciated

Chris
