    hi all,

    i've recently got rid of WU and moved to vsftpd. i was wondering is someone
    could help me with the following challenge:

    user: media
    /home/media

    essentially i have this situation in /home/media/:
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 media media 29 Sep 30 12:59 music ->
    /mnt/uber/media/music/albums/

    /mnt/uber is a 120gig USB attached device.

    now if i run vsftpd without chroot_local_user=YES, then i can cd music when
    in media's home dir, and I essentially get cd'd to /mnt/uber...
    but i can also branch out of anywhere that my media
    user can - which is not great! is there another approach i should be using
    to allow the media user to cd into that music symlink, but nowhere else?
    I've often seen other linking mechanisms on large ftp sites - maybe
    something like that?

    cheers
    mike
