I am trying to connect on ftp localhost but the login/password always fail. I have installed vsFTPd. I guess i have to modify passwd.conf. But how must I process? I have this line : 

paul:x:1000:1000:paul,,,:/home/paul:/bin/false

Thank you!

You can set new password with passwd (enter). or login with root privileges and type (sudo) passwd [username], and change password then.

And maybe need change config ftp server and set local_enable=YES and chroot_local_user=YES in the /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf file config, for allow users in /etc/passwd to login.

You should add system user in chroot file like.

chroot_local_user=YES
chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd.chroot_list

after need to restart vsftpd service.
