Can you lock people in a directory? Any PET's? ;D

yeah, i suppose a chroot would do it.

ok. I will try to figure out how to do it and put a box next week

read the ftp pet for chrooting (I think theres one). And apply that. Then make everyone use sftp to get in (like firewall all but port 22 or whatever). Plus add any other security features you need in place. Tripwire may be nice to have installed too. I do believe, that if you make a login script for the users to access one specific directory as the home dir, and chroot that, you get away with only using a dir with symlinks for the files (assuming youhave a flat tree).

But you are the boss ;D make it as you see fit.
