thats not a security problem. its how its supposed to behave.
if u dont want users chrooted to /home/username, that is, they can only go
to as high as /home/username, read on re giving users "guestgroup" access in
wu-ftpd docs, and then change their respective enreies in /etc/passwd so that
when theyll log in to ftp, they'll be chrooted to /home/username ...
example, for /etc/passwd:
user:x:1023:1100:user,,,:/home/user/./:/usr/bin/ascriptiwrote
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
this is his chrooted dir
also, try reading man chroot
AFAIK,
