New to Solaris so excuse my ignorance. I have set up FTPD service. Everything works ok, but I would like the user to, when connecting via ftp, to be restricted from browsing above their home directory. for example, if bloggs logs on, it automatically defaults to the users home directory "/home/bloggs" but they can quite freely "cd /"to get back to the root. Is it possible when the user bloggs uses the command PWD, it returns "/" rather than "/home/bloggs" so that they cant go up any further.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
