Hi,

I am currently configuring my FreeBSD 3.1 system for web hosting purposes
and am looking at the FTP aspect right now.

Is there anyway for me to restrict a user's access to the system areas in
FTP ? For example, if I have the following directory structure below,

/usr/home - polarbear (/usr/home/polarbear)
                    - sunbear (/usr/home/sunbear)

When user 'polarbear' logs in through FTP and is brought into his home
directory (/usr/home/polarbear), is there anyway to restrict him so that he
cannot go into the directory one level up, namely, '/usr/home' and stays
strictly in his home directory ?

Thanks.

Regards,
Seng Yip
