We have a BSD v 3.5 system and we have the following problem.
We have two different users, user1 and user2 -  both are real system users.  We want to set the system so that they can both  ftp into different directory and only to a specific directory. 
i.e. 
user1 to be able to ftp  to /usr/temp/user1 (so this will be his root directory, so he won't be able to see anything else) and 
user2 to be able to ftp  to /usr/temp/user2 (so this will be his root directory, so he won't be able to see anything else).
 For security reasons we want only certain users to be able to access specific directories.
We have tried to follow the directions of the ftpaccess but obviously we haven't been successful!!! Only the admin user can ftp so far.  We would appreciate any help you can offer us on this matter even if you have to charge us for the info.  Hope to here from you sooooon!!!!
