With ssh2 you can use chroot to limit access to other dirs. In your config: ChRootUsers user1,user2,user3 you can also restric groups the same way: ChRootGroups group1,group2,group3 Just don't forget to hardlink any system files into their directories so they can actually use their accounts. Note: I've never done this myself and I just pulled the 'how-to' from O'Reilly's SSH book. This is a great resource, and I recommend you get a copy. Just occassionally, the kind souls on freebsd-users come up with real gems of information. Thank you, I've been looking for a solution like this for weeks!

Also is there a way to give (and limit) a user FTP access to another users home directory? You mean besides changing permissions? Thanks!

Not with the installed sshd Also is there a way to give (and limit) a user FTP access to another users home directory? Yes. add the user ids or groups to /etc/ftpchroot. See the manpage. That will restrict users to their home directory and its sub directories. Thanks!
