Jailing vsftpd user to home directory
I have added a new user to a RHEL4 Server, and I the chroot user is uncommented and the user is listed in the plain user group.
However, when the id is tried out for the customer (using winscp) using the login you can view the root contents. I want to lock the user id to only the home directory to go down but not up? Is this possible, so far I have not had any success with configuration. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes it is possible, open /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf and set the following to yes:
Code:
chroot_local_user=YES

I have this set so will restarting the services make this effective?
