I've not played with FTP servers for years, but I do recall reading instructions to chroot when someone logs in, so they're stuck in a jail that has their homespace at the top of the tree, with just a few system commands copied to a chroot jail for them (so they can list files, etc., the usual FTP operations). Stick chroot and proftpd into a Google search, and see if that gets you started. -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.23.1-10.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5. Today, it's FC7.
