We may have a winner! chroot_local_user=YES Added that the vsftpd.conf and the install now seems to be working!
Do I believe it? NO! I'll attempt 2 more installs. If they work, I will take out the chroot_local_user and try again. (of course, I will save the good Suse 9 install.) But it does make me wonder, if this parm is so common, that it is not worth mentioning in the Suse 9 installation manual, just what else hasn't been mentioned? Of course, I'm getting ahead of myself. This could just be a fluke or it may allow the (wrong) path I took to work<G>. It just shouldn't have been this difficult.

Be sure that in vsftpd.conf you have set chroot_local_user=YES Also - check your script you used to create the installroot.
