that worked.
IMHO vsftpd is tons faster than wu-ftpd and since RedHat used it during the push of
7.2 on their ftp site I figured I would try it.

I'm not sure about vsftp but most ftp servers I've used require that a
user have a valid shell to be allowed to ftp. The shell's absolute path
must appear in /etc/shells. You could add /sbin/nologin to /etc/shells
and it should fix your problem.
To keep a user in the home directory, however, you need to run the
session chrooted as someone else has already pointed out.
