Subject:   wu-ftpd doesn't tar or compress

I installed the wu-ftpd port (2.2.2-RELEASE) and it runs from
inetd with the -i, -l, and -a switches.  It is logging to xferlog.
In ftp/bin I have ls, tar, gzip, and compress, all owned root:ftp
with 111 permissions.  The directories in ftp are 555.

In pub I have a directory called junk with some junk files in it,
but when I log in to the server and type get junk.tar.gz or
get junk.tar.Z it says "No such file or directory."

ftpaccess and ftpconversions are in /usr/local/etc; I have not
modified them.

There's a statement somewhere that gnu tar is required....is the
FreeBSD tar gnu tar?  

What else might I have to do?  I don't have a password file in
ftp/etc because I'm just setting this up for anonymous ftp, not
for specific users.

Thanks--

	Annelise
