Everything still works with your setup, the only problem is that you cannot
execute ls.. for example, if you try to get a file which you know is there,
you will get it..

When people belong to an ftpguest group, wu-ftpd chroots to their home.
Therefore, it expects to find /bin/ls in there..

All you have to do, is copy it in every users home.. e.g.
/home/jholl/bin/ls ... Be careful, because it has to be statically linked
(��� the one in ~ftp/bin and not /bin/ls).

If you want that to be the default for every new user in your system, then
you may find convinient to do "cp -a ~ftp/bin /etc/skel" and put 'users' in
your ftpguest group..  :)
