FTP Question

Ok. It's not that hard.
Make the user a normal user on your domain (a Domain User), or if this is a stand-alone machine, then make a normal user account for the user to use.

You can leave the security on the FTPROOT folder as it is by default. In the ftp folder, make a subfolder for your user to use (call it USER).
Go to Security on the USER folder, and remove everyone except the user who is gonna use this folder, and give the user rights (Modify rights seem to work good).

Ok, that isit.
When the user FTPs in, they will automatically bind to the USER folder. They won't be in the FTPROOT folder.

hope this helps

Just an added bit of advice - since FTP is a very insecure protocol, you might want to further secure your server by setting it to accept connections only from certain IP addresses, and then put your client's IP address (assuming it is static) in asauthorized. The reason I say this is that I have personally experienced hackers getting into my system using FTP and storing files on my server that then caused some file system corruption, not to mention filling up my hard drive. This is on an FTP site that was intended only for use by a select few users, not a public, open FTP transfer site. I solved my security problem this way and it seems to have worked without fail - I see quite a few log entries these days on my FTP server for attempts at connection from unauthorized IP addresses. Hope this helps!
