Hi,

I want to create one ftp user that only access to one directory /ftp/userA, and I want that this ftp user could not go to another directorys up its directory /ftp/userA.

hi,

Make the edits to the /etc/passwd file

ftpguest:2HZkDatENY:505:125::/home/ftp/ftpguest/./:/usr/bin/false
^^^
- '.' Is the delimiter to determine where the chroot will be performed. In
this example, after logging in '/' will in effect be /home/ftp/ftpguest.
If the delimiter was placed between ftp and ftpguest then '/' would be
/home/ftp ftpguest was used as the account name in this example but you
could use any name you like.
