Adding FTP User Account to specific Directory

[Louigi]

Hi there

I've been able to login via FTP to vusolo2 using root with password I set using telnet. I mainly use it to transfer files (movies/photos/etc) from laptop to vu box.

My Question

I've created another FTP user via telnet. Is it possible to allow that user access to only the Movies directory on the vu box? For example to allow family to download movies remotely? I've read quite a few solutions for this, but I cannot seem to get it working. I've followed all steps here:

http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/83221/how-to-create-a-ftp-user-with-specific-dir-access-only-on-a-centos-linux-ins?rq=1

What I did

1) Edited vsftpd.conf file to allow

chroot_local_user=YES

2) Set the home directory of the new user with the following command

usermod -d /media/hdd/videos/movies username

When I try to login with new user, it doesn't login to /media/hdd/videos/movie directory. Instead, it logs in to the root where all files & folders are visible.

Anyone know what I may be missing or if it is possible?

Thanks in advance guys
