Sushant Mohindru You can try this and it should lock them to their folder only.
Quote: Open vsftpd configuration file - /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
# vi /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
Make sure following line exists (and uncommented):
chroot_local_user=YES
Save and close the file. Restart vsftpd.
# /etc/init.d/vsftpd restart sorry it was sftp...i m trying to make limited users.........so could you please help me with that? SFTP isn't a FTP daemon. Contact me if you need help with vsftpd. Quote: contact me... The whole point of a forum is to provide the solution so that everyone else is able to benefit from the help provided. It also shows whether your method is suitable, useful, and not untoward. Asking him to contact you privately is just downright shady. jayfella,
I made a custom script to add users and chroot them and I don't want to publish it here.
btw.
