But do read the .conf file

------------
# You may specify an explicit list of local users to chroot() to
# their home directory.

# chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd/chroot_list
------------

You can, instead, add the users name to the "chroot_list_file". Then
don't active "chroot_local_user=YES". I use the file and have these
lines active in vsftpd.conf

chroot_list_enable=YES
chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd/chroot.list
