RE: wu-ftpd



Did you put ls, in the bin directory of the ftp home directory?

I'm trying to set up ftpd.  The man pages suggest wu-ftpd, so that's what I'm using.  I've gone down 
the wu man page and set my server up according to it's recomendation.  The only problem I'm having
is with anonymous users and ls.  When I connect using loopback, login using anonymous and try
ls, I get no output.  Only the following shows up:

ftp> ls
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.
226 Transfer complete.
ftp>

this should show the the pub sub-dir at least.

Accounts that I have setup for testing purposes and existing accounts seem to work.  Should I have
removed the crypted password from /etc/passwd?  I do have a copy of passwd and group in 
/home/ftp/etc without passwords in them.  ls has also been copied to /home/ftp/bin, as suggested
by man wu-ftpd.

If I know the filename beforehand, I can upload and download as expected. I just seems that ls doesn't
work.


Any clues?

Thanks
