Hi there,
 
I'm having some troubles configuring a guest account with wuftp.  I
followed the instructions at ftp://ftp.fni.com/pub/wu-ftpd/guest-howto
to set up a guest user account with a user name "elvis" member of group
"ftpusers" with a home directory in "/home/ftpusers/elvis".

I can login fine, upload files, download files just fine.  Only problem
is I can't see a directory listing.  What am I missing?

thanks,
Rob

read the FAQ about setting up bin/ls in the anonymous area .. where it
says "anonymous" read "chroot'd-guest area"

The location of the latest version of wu-ftpd can be found in the 
directory
