The most common cause for this problem is that you are using a "ls"
program which requires shared libraries and you don't have a copy 
of the libc.so and ld.so files in ~ftp/lib.

Either put a copy of the needed shared library (libc.so.* and ld.so.*)
files; use a _HARD_ link to them in the /lib (or whereever directory);
or use a static linked "ls" program in the ~ftp/bin directory.

(By the way, this is not mentioned in the man page, README, etc.)
