Hi

I need to provide an access to one particular Unix user on an existing directory. This directory must be the only one with being visible.

How to do this ?

have a look to rsh as login shell for your user
 
I've done something like this on HP-UX but restricting FTP, take a look at the chroot command you may be able to set the root directory for this user as /home/user
