Ok, I followed you guide from the first page and got proftpd set up. Everything is working. But there are some things I'd like to change about how it works. First, before I used your guide, I was logging into the server (via ftp) with the same user/password that I used to log into the system. I was using whatever proftpd.conf that came installed. (I didn't change anything.) My first question is how safe is that? Now, when logged in as that user, I could go anywhere on the filesystem that I wanted. I liked being able to access everything. How can I do this again?

I'm no linux expert, so keep that in mind. Thanks!
