Hi Dave,
Heres a copy of one of the domains i host for ftp access :
<VirtualHost somedomain.com>
<Global>
DefaultRoot /home/directory username
</Global>
<Directory /home/directory/*>
AllowOverwrite on
</Directory>
User username
Group www
# Limit the maximum number of logins
MaxClients 5
</VirtualHost>
Hope this helps.
Regards,
