Is there a way to make vsftpd give a listing for an ftp directory that looks
like:

drwxr-x---   4 lorenzo ftp  4096 Feb 24  2004 Christmas
drwxr-x---   2 lorenzo ftp  4096 May  3  2004 DVS
drwxr-x---   2 lorenzo ftp  4096 May  1  2004 comedy
drwxr-x---   2 lorenzo ftp  4096 Feb 24  2004 dectalk
drwxr-x---   2 lorenzo ftp  4096 Dec  9 00:37 images
drwx-wx---   5 lorenzo ftp  4096 Jan 17 17:04 incoming
drwxr-x---  55 lorenzo ftp 20480 Dec 29 22:03 music
drwxr-x---   4 lorenzo ftp  4096 Feb 24  2004 narnia
drwxr-x---   3 lorenzo ftp  4096 Jan 16 02:04 software
drwxr-x---   2 lorenzo ftp  4096 Dec 28 10:46 soundfonts
drwxr-x---   2 lorenzo ftp  8192 May 14  2004 sounds
drwxr-x---   3 lorenzo ftp  4096 Feb 24  2004 text
drwxr-x---   2 lorenzo ftp  4096 May 29  2004 video

and to make it actually let people download files with similar permissions and
ownership, with the exception that all files are rw-r----- instead of
rwx-r-x----?

Actually, this is the only reason why I still use proftpd, as I like how vsftpd
can chroot local users in their home directories so they don't have ftp access
to other parts of the system.

Sorry for the diversion, but I thought since vsftpd was mentioned as a better
sollution I should go ahead and ask my question here.  I will repost in a new
thread if it is more appropriate.
