chroot_local_user=NO
chroot_list_enable=YES
chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd.chroot_list (This is set by default if chroot_list_enable=YES
then after starting vsftpd, /sbin/service vsftpd status will give error message *"vsftpd dead but subsys locked".
*Any idea?

Hi, I've surfed around on the internet and found some document about setting up chroot for wu-ftp, but not for vsftpd. FC2 already have vsftpd installed, I'd like to set it up with chroot. I couldn't find the instruction to do this on vsftpd website. Anybody can help or can give me some websites I can go to look? Thanks
vsftpd by default does chroot.
read the /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf file and man 5 vsftpd.conf
