Did you check with your local network services support group? :)
In Redhat, it's in /etc/vsftpd/chroot_users
chroot_list_enable=YES
chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd/chroot_list
Also, make sure that you set the users to /sbin/nologin for their shell.

I've set up a ftp server at work and want to limit users to a directory
and its subs. How to?
This doesn't appear to be very well documented.
You want a chroot jail?
This seems like it would be a good place to start:

Is it not true that some ftp server packages have better security
reputations than others?
As I understand it, vsftp is one of the better ones. so, LB, if you have
something other than vsftp on your server, maybe you should ask about it.

Thanks, Jim.
1. it's vsftpd
2. it's inside the company firewall
3. it's company and I basically don't give a rat's patootie about security
;-)
