That's about half the information needed.

WHO IS "i"?

whoami
who am i


As usual, showing actual commands with their
actual output might be more helpful than
vague descriptions and interpretations.

So, you're setting this up as a guest
account? (That's important news.)

You seem to have installed an "ls" in the
right place. Is it the right "ls"? Where
did you get it? The normal "ls"
("/usr/bin/ls") needs a bunch of run-time
libraries, which you don't have in this
chroot file system. The special
(static-linked) "ls" ("/sbin/ls") should work
better.

ls -l /sbin/ls /usr/bin/ls

You want the bigger one. (I believe that
"man ftpd" mentions this.) Did you say
whether this is a PA-RISC or IA64 system?
61116 seems to be too small to be the right
"ls", but its size depends on the hardware,
and I don't have an HP-UX system running
right now, so I can't easily look at mine.

(Or, for extra credit, you could create
"/try/work/proc/usr/lib", and copy into it
all the things needed by the normal "ls", but
that would be the hard way to do it.)

Thanks steve for your help ... you give me an idea ... the problem was ...

i´d copy from /usr/bin/ls to /try/work/proc/usr/bin/ls ... but after your email .. i´d copy from /sbin/ls to /try/work/proc/usr/bin/ls ... and all is working now.

Excelente help from you

Note that with a better description of what
you did, you could have had the same answer
two days sooner.
