Summary: How to install chroot for FTP

Keywords: chroot, ftp, proftp, proftpd

Tips: The chroot contrib works in 6.0, just ignore the errors. Don't forget to setup quotas for your users, or they will use up your hard drive. Also, since you are an ISP, make sure that you have some kind of contract that exonerates you from any legal matters that may arise from copyrighted material being hosted on your server (ie. mp3s, movies, and the like).

Known Limitations and Caveats: As stated by everyone else, I am not responsible for what you do with your server, test all software on another machine before you install on your production server. That being said, have fun and good luck.
