Re: FTP server problems (I think)

[Lindsay Allen <allen@cleo.murdoch.edu.au>]

You are using wu-ftp?

The trouble is that the ls command in /home/ftp/bin is not statically
linked, but depends on a library which should be in /home/ftp/lib.  You
most likely have the wrong version of the library.  Check like this:
 ldd /home/ftp/bin/ls

My situation is:-

elm# ldd /home/ftp/bin/ls
        libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5 (0x4000a000)

elm# ls -l /home/ftp/lib
total 583
-r-xr-xr-x   1 root     root        21375 Aug  7  1996 ld-linux.so.1*
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           14 Jun 27 16:20 libc.so.5 ->
libc.so.5.4.23*
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root       570288 Jun 27 16:20 libc.so.5.4.23*

I would appreciate it if you would send me the output of
  ls -lR /home/ftp
before you fix it, just to satisfy my own curiosity.
