If you experience problems with slow logins in pure-ftpd, this is often caused by a problem with the resolving of the clients hsotname. This happens e.g. when you run a FTP server in your intranet and the hostname of the client computer does not exist in DNS. To disable name resolving in pureftpd, run the command:
echo 'yes' > /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/DontResolve
and then restart pure-ftpd
/etc/init.d/pure-ftpd-mysql restart
Disabling name resolving also fixes the following error message:
