In ftpaccess define a guestgroup, and list the users in that group in /etc/group. The user then has no access to /bin/ls, so you need to provide ~/bin/ls for each one. A better method is to get the srcs for the latest ftpd for FreeBSD, enable INTERNAL_LS (or whatever the macro is) and put the users into /etc/ftpchroot after reading the man page. Danny
