I am trying to set up a user called dreamw for dreamweaver access to my linux apache server.
I have attached my ftpaccess file.

Here is the passwd entry for dreamw

dreamw:x:501:501:Dreamweaver4:/var/www/html/./:/bin/true

I can make any other ftp user and connect okay, but I want dreamw to have the home dir of /var/www/html so when I go to log in I get an error of login incorrect #530 (I changed and rechanged the password to confirm I'm putting it in correctly) but continually get refused to connect.

As I want to use dreamweaver to update my site this would be very handy, did anyone else do something like this?

I am also including the ll's

drwxrwsr-x 3 dreamw web 4096 Oct 11 15:36 html

-rwxrwsr-x 1 dreamw web 500 Oct 3 06:22 index.html
drw-rw---- 2 dreamw web 4096 Oct 11 15:36 mrtg

Any help is greatly appreciated..

Have you tried:

dreamw:x:501:501: Dreamweaver4:/var/www/html:/bin/true

in the passwd file? (lose the '/./' after 'html')
