I would like to create an account to be used for FTP.  Since the password
will be known by a couple people / could be sniffed since it's not sftp, I
would obviously like to limit the powers of this user as much as possible.
Specifically, I would like it to be able to create and read files in it's
own directory, and that's it.  No execution capabilities, unable to read
files not in its directory, etc.  What's the best way to do this?

Thanks,

Adam
