how to limit area's users can traverse



hello

How do you limit the area which a user can go with ftp?
i.e, when user ftp's to my server, how do I keep him in
his portion of the filesystem only.

Way back when, I saw a setup on a redhat system which
had a non standard "cd" binary which was put
in each user's path.  This "cd" could not be deleted
by the user and it would not allow the user to cd
to any directory not owned by the user.  It seemed
kinda weird, but it definitely did the trick.
