i have 3 partitions on my imac, and one is completely empty ...i want to make the ftp users to use this empty parition (because now the partiton they use is in my system disk (users) ...is it possible ...i mean to move the users ftp directories (ie 'andrea' and 'gigi') from my system partition to the empty one?

thanks!:)
i will try to do it in the afternoon (now i'm not at home) logging in as root, i think it's more easy if i only need to drag and drop the user folders ...

FTP Jail Trouble

When I follow those instructions and try to log on as the specified FTP user, I get an error message about being unable to change roots. What is the problem? What have I done wrong?

New FTP daemon in 10.2

This thread is outdated. It is correct for OS X 10.1.x, but is not applicable for 10.2.

OS X 10.2 no longer uses ftpd 6.00LS; instead Apple is using lukemftpd. However, their documentation has not been updated to reflect this change. In other words, chroot is badly broken and the ftpwelcome, ftpchroot, ftpusers files are all no longer used to configure the ftp daemon.

I actually replaced the FTP daemon altogether, as it was useless to me and didn't offer the features I needed (DOCUMENTATION, chroot, bandwidth throttling, quotas, etc.). I think you'll find that the easiest course to take. Give it a try:

How-to install pure-ftpd is in the Darwin forum for 10.1.x or 10.2.x:
