I've just enabled anonymous ftp to my Debian 1.1 Linux box according to the instructions in the ftpd manpage. All works fine, except that it appears that an anonymous ftp user cannot use the command "DIR" and "ls -l" doesn't work (both report no files). This works fine for regular users. I simply copied /bin/ls to ~ftp/bin; I thought the problem may have been that ls couldn't find its libraries after the chroot, but copying libc.so to ~ftp/lib didn't help either.
Any ideas on how to enable DIR for anonymous ftp users? Thanks, # Dave -- David M. Smith, Department of Mathematics and Statistics, Lancaster University <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> x3952 http://www.maths.lancs.ac.uk:2080/~maa036/
