I am trying to set up ftp on an AUX 2.0 machine and seem to have a problem. I did everything according to the man pages yet when someone ftp's in, ls doesn't work. They can get files if they know the name but ls always returns 0 bytes. Any ideas?

You're welcome.
NB: Apple's purported new FTP site, ftp.apple.com, currently suffers from the
same problem. Makes it kind of difficult to actually use their archives...

Include the following files/directories under ~ftp and everything will work correctly... (AUX support helped me on this one, Thanks...) ~ftp/lib/libc_s.a ~ftp/shlib/libc_s ~ftp/bin/ls ~ftp/etc/group ~ftp/etc/passwd PS. And remember... no soft links (ftp does a chroot) PSS. Any followups should be posted to the AUX group.-- JOYE,WILLIAM A Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta Georgia, 30332 uucp: ...!{decvax,hplabs,ncar,purdue,rutgers}!gatech!prism!wj4 Internet: wj4@prism.gatech.edu
