If you add /bin/false to the /etc/shells file, you won't have to change them.

But you shouldn't have to, and I don't on my servers.

As long as the username is also in /etc/proftpd.paswd (which it should be) your users should still be able to log in.

What OS are you using?

Is there a line:

AuthUserFile /etc/proftpd.passwd

in your /etc/proftpd.conf file?

Also remember that the primary user's FTP account won't change when you change your DA pass. You need to go into your FTP menu (user panel) and change the password there.

This feature also allows you to give access to the primary account by FTP but not the control panel itself.
