We set something similar up years ago just using IIS, its still active but I 
don't remember all the details of the top of my head  we did use a single IP 
address
Home directory  is   E:\ftpserver\ClientFTP

If you login at the  server and go to that directory you see  a directory named 
Localuser under that you see the individual client folders and the names match 
the username they login with

When they login they go directly to their folder and cannot migrate away

Does it have to be a Windows box?  

Can you run 5 different instances of FileZilla Server in 5 different VMs, each 
of which can only "see" what you want to expose?  That would certainly limit 
your exposure, although I think you'd need 5 Windows OS licenses (unless you 
ran FileZilla in WINE on Linux VMs -- it's gold-rated there: WineHQ - FileZilla 
FTP Server
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=8230 ).

No personal experience with these, but this looks like it will work for 99 
euros up front and 39 euros each year:

    zFTPServer 
    http://www.zftpserver.com/index.php/base/downloadBuy

This old freeware standby has users and limits their access to folders, but I 
don't think it supports multiple IPs:

    warftp.org
    http://www.warftp.org/

And of course there's your old friend Wiki
