I am trying to limit access for ftp accounts. I can set the home directory for when the user logs in, but how can I limit the user to just that home directory?

Any help is much appreciated!!!
 
set up 3rd party ftp, most of the times it works with a copy of /etc/passwd in which you can alter the ftp home directory.From there on you have to work with setting permissions on files and folders
