several ftp questions

when any user ftp's into my computer using thier account, they are automatically started in their home directory.

For general access I want my ftp server to mpoint to a specific folder on my hard drive that contains the files I want them to see. The thing is that I don't want them to be able to search around once they have entered as an anonymous user. Basically I don't know how to limit the extent to which any user can navigate my directory system. I don't want JOE to be able to download from MY home directory, just the anonymous one.

Thanks in advance for all your help.

I'm sorry if any of that is incoherent, i got 4 hours of sleep.
