Unless you make a link in your home directory or subdirectory to a directory outside your location. When you sftp into the system, you can follow the links.

If you are using vsftp and in /etc/passwd you specified
mosherben:x:800:800::/var/www:/bin/bash
Then you root become /var/www .
If you will try to cd / or /usr/local/apache etc. you will stay in your root
/var/www. You can not go above, copy files from above etc.
the same with your friend, he will be bounded to his root
/var/www/pectaybte.

Hi,
ok I installed the vsftpd which came with RH9. Anyhows I know the config
file is in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf but how do I configure it to be
multi-users with no anonymous access. This is only for a friend and myself
to use. I have created our usernames and passwords but how to choose what
directories we have access to?
I want my account (mosherben) to access /var/www/ for complete control of
the FTP server and service so I can change the permissions of a subfolder
using an FTP client if I dont like something I see in one of the folders.
I want my friends account (pectabyte) to access /var/www/pectaybte to control his area of the FTP service.
Both accounts need full permissions (7). Can someone help me figure the
configuration out?
Thanks, Ben
PS: I havnt updated any packages yet using up2date before someone asks.
