Lionel,

When you ftp with anonymous the files known by the group ftp.  A quick 
bypass is to chmod the directory to 755 or 777 and that should get you in. 
Then I would look at the config file of you ftp application - for instance 
is vsftp change to this 
anon_mkdir_write_enable=NO
anon_other_write_enable=NO
# Security
anon_world_readable_only=NO

Setting up anon ftp






I setup a linux server (based on the novell starter kit) under z/vm to 
serve installation media. In the anonymous ftp directory /srv/repository 
(which the starter kit placed there) I created a link to my sles11 
directory which is mounted on /dev/dasdd1.  When I ftp in as anonymous I 
can see the sles11 directory: 

lrwxrwxrwx    1 0        0              12 May 11 20:19 sles11 -> 
/sles/sles11 

But I can not cd to it 

ftp> cd sles11 
550 Failed to change directory. 

I'm baffled - any advice 

Thanks
