Does anyone know how to force wu-FTPD 2.4 to lock a registered user to a
predefined root directory? I know this works with anonymous users but I
can't seem to get it to work with anyone else. Could you also give me the
proper format for this in the passwd file? Thanks.

I really don't want to recompile wu-ftpd right now. Thanks.

David
