RE: Setting up Anon FTP?
Maybe installing wu-ftpd will solve the problem then? I was trying
to set things up by man according to the man page. I'm still
curious as to what I need to set up for chroot to work.

I was having the same problem (wu-ftpd, hamm distribution) and sent a
message to the list a few days ago with no responses.
After seeing Ossama's message, I copied the lib files to /home/ftp/lib as
suggested. It fixed it for me. chroot works also, by the way.
I tried static linking, but that didn't work, although I would think that
it should.
