Thanks to Derek, Igmar, Angus, and Derek .... my ftp access is getting
closer, but still not 100%.
I now have a limited ftp account, but I cannot see the directories!! I know
the directory structure is correct because I can 'cd' to the directories,
but I cannot 'ls'
I have a bin, etc, pub directory structure.
In bin I have a copy of 'ls'
Perms are set according to O'Reilly's Unix and Internet Security book
bin is 111 owned by root
ls is 111 owned by root
What have I missed??

There was a discussion about this on linux-isp I think. You need to add
the users to the ftpusers group (if you're running wuftpd, which I suspect
you are), which will then set them chroot'ed into their home directory.
the "/./" will no longer be needed. :)
