Re: [SLUG] WU-FTP and chroot
Per user FTP isn't really acceptable unless you're using a VPN, Secure FTP, or some other encryption mechanism. Otherwise its very easy for anyone connected to a network between the client and server to discover the passwords used. I'd maybe look at OpenSSHs SFTP.

[SLUG] WU-FTP and chroot
Does anyone know how I can configure wu-ftpd to chroot all users to a specified directory? I would like all users who connect via ftp to see /ftp as the root directory, but the closest I can get is to have all users chrooted to their home directories.
