Thanks for yr feedback, here r the details
I am using Sco Unix ( version 2.1.2- A very old version), It has inbuilt C compiler. the user want to ftp files to this server from a windows 2000 PC.
I need to create a login user in Unix system to have only FTP access to upload files in a purticular directory & with read & write permissions in that directory only. The user should not be able to change directories, run any unix system level commands..

How the above is possible?? I tried using restricted shell "rksh", but it blocks ftp also

please reply at the earliest
 
You will need to download the source code for a FTP server like wu-ftp, that will offer you the chroot environment you are after. Luckily you have a C compiler, so compiling it just may be OK.
