I was working on an issue with apache not being able to run scripts and so I changed some user groups and turns out I removed something necessary. I'm not sure what I removed though.

I've been googling, but haven't seen an answer to this question.
 
@RadNadz
hope this'll help

# grep apache /etc/passwd
apache:x:48:48:Apache:/var/www:/sbin/nologin

# grep ftp /etc/passwd
ftp:x:14:50:FTP User:/var/ftp:/sbin/nologin
psaftp:x:501:503:anonftp psa user:/:/sbin/nologin
