[luau] Iptables firewall question

[Nelson Garcia]

Did you install from rpm? One possibility is that once you are in the 
chroot environment you are not able to access the ls command. You might 
need to create a /bin directory in your chroot tree. Be careful what you 
put in it as you could open the door to a malicious user exploiting 
whatever you put there (including the ls command), so watch your 
permissions.
I did have this same problem once when I installed from source.
There are other possibilities but try this one first. I hope that helps.
