I think you forgot some libraries that ls needs: [EMAIL PROTECTED](p3):binary-i386# ls ~ftp/* /home/ftp/welcome.msg /home/ftp/bin: gzip ls tar zip /home/ftp/etc: group passwd pathmsg /home/ftp/lib: ld-linux.so.1 libc.so.5 libc.so.5.4.23 /home/ftp/pub: bhmit1 incoming But, like Ben, I'm going to suggest something other than ftpd. However, my suggestion is wu-ftpd. It's very popular for most ftp sites I have seen (I must confess I have no experience with proftpd). It has many features that you may be interested in: connection limits (so people don't open 1,000 connections and bog your machine down), I think you can have several anonymous users of different types, and automatic change of permissions on incomming files so people don't use you as a warez server.
