HI,
I'm running mandrake 8. I'm trying to set up wuftp so that when I give a user an account, they will be unable to browse to other directories. Please help.
Thanks in advance

I don't have wuftp installed nor have I ever used it.

Is there any documentation included with wuftp or manpages? man wuftp

Also look into the file /etc/ftpusers or something similiar to that as I believe you can add specific ftp users to that file.

You might want to look into the links off this page:

http://www.wu-ftpd.org/HOWTO/

It's wu-ftpd.org (the site wu-ftpd is distributed from)'s set of 4 howtos. The first one or two are probably applicable, the ones about the chroot jail.
