I have ftpchroot'ed the account to limit access to the directories I want to - is there any way of disabling all other access (SSH/telnet/rlogin/SMTP auth etc). I thought about removing the shell type from the user account but believe ftpd needs a shell to be specified to validate the logon. Many thanks, Nick Wilson
