Error 530 Must perform authentication before identifying USER in FTP

This is one of most annoying issues you face when using ftp server in Red Hat linux. The solution is very straight forward.

Open the gssftp file. It is normally located at /etc/xinetd.d

Change the line "Server_args = -l -a'

to

"server_args = -l"

Then restart the ftp server
