All I can say is download PureFTPd (www.pureftpd.org) and compile with 
the following switch

--with-puredb

(from the main documentation). Install and then follow the directions 
for setting up virtual users 
(http://www.pureftpd.org/README.Virtual-Users) . Create your users and 
start the server with

/usr/local/sbin/pure-ftpd -j -lpuredb:/etc/pureftpd.pdb &

I was doing this EXACT task today. After arguing for hours with the 
vsftp server I went for this one. After about 15 minutes its now working 
like a dream.

Good luck

Simon
