I setup the ftp lastnight. /home/ftp becomes the root directory.
Therefore find where lib lives in the real system, and copy the file there
in the /home/ftp area. ie: /home/ftp/lib/libc.so.4 No special permissions
were required, although I made everything read only except for pub.
Remember, the ftp server sees /home/ftp as /
If something wanted /bin/xxx, it is actually looking in /home/ftp/bin/xxx
