when ftp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx response is slow, please add "reverse_lookup_enable=NO" in vsftpd.config. And restart vsftpd service.

systemctl restart vsftpd
systemctl status vsftpd

# vim /etc/sysconfig/selinux

SELINUX=disabled

530 login failure:

SSH Error: /etc/shells is either world writable or not a normal file

solution:

When I checked the permissions of the file /etc/shells and it was set to 777 (universal writable).

root@server [~]# ll /etc/shells
-rwxrwxrwx  1 root root 32 Feb 23 23:54 /etc/shells*

So, I changed the permission of the file to 644 and able to login into SSH.

root@server [~]# chmod 644 /etc/shells
root@server [~]# ll /etc/shells
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 32 Feb 23 23:55 /etc/shells
root@server [~]#
