I am having a problem that I have never seen before...

When a user signs on using FTP, the dir command comes back without displaying anything. The ls command works.

In diag the problem, I found that I could not sign on using FTP to a new user I created.
530 User li-user access denied...
Login failed.

There is no /etc/ftpd/ftpusers file. I even recreated it and it still gets the same error.

I then ftped as root and dir and ls work....

I then ftped from the server back to the server as the original ID that was given me problems and now dir and ls do not work?????

Any ideas..... Never seen anything like this before... The users tell me they where using it without a problem last week. The system has been up for over 200 days.....
