Good day,
I have setup a few ftp accounts on my server;
ie:	create users in different groups
	create their root directory and apply proper security
	modify .bash_profile to make sure they exit immediately
	   after trying to log in with telnet *
	modify .bash_profile protection so the users cannot
	   modify it
But, their is a big security breach which allow them to browse the 
entire system (/, /etc, ....) and read what's in them.
How can I forbid that and force them to stay within their home directory?
I believe this is achieved with the /etc/ftpaccess file.
* Is there a better way to avoir telnet access from those users?
Regards,
