lock ftp directory



 All, 

I try to create a ftp user and lock the directory. It 
seems it didn't work because the user can go back to 
the upper level and we don't ftpuser can go back to 
the upper level. 
Here is command: 

# useradd -d /home/ftpuser1/ -s /dev/null ftpuser1 > 
/dev/null 2>&1 

edit /etc/passwd and add /./ 
ftpuser1:x:513:513::/home/./ftpuser1/:/dev/null 

Did I miss anything? 

Thanks. 

-DP
