This is not trivial, since WU-ftpd uses external executables to perform certain operations (e.g., `ls'), so these executables and any libraries on which they depend need to be in the chroot()'ed environment. It can be done; search the web for "wu-ftpd guest login". SG> Just put their username into /etc/ftpchroot This works with the BSD ftpd but not WU-ftpd, AFAIK.
