how to restrict ftp access

[teedee]

Hi,

I want to create a new account using a theme without filemanager (this part is done) and allowing the user to be able to ftp only to a specified directory and not into public_html

for example /home/user/domains/domain.com/public_html/ftp_directory

The reason for this is that I am selling a CMS system and I only want clients to have ftp access to the directory holding the template files.

ideas ??

cannot see anyway to prevent the client ftp'ing into /home/username though......

1. See attached image.

2. FTP access is controlled by /etc/proftpd.passwd
The 6th field specifies a user's home directory.
