A few problems. I know this is something real simple in the configuration I am overlooking. This is my first time using cpanel/whm.

When I create a new user account in whm, and I use ftp for that user, they go to this directory by default, and it looks like they have snooping capabilities by being able to browse back levels.

/usr/local/apache/htdocs

I believe the directory they go to should be here:
/home/newusername

I don't want them to be able to go back any levels. They should stay in their folder only. I did just notice that when I go to "change ownership of an account" it lists it as root (mars.mydomain.com). Why did it place it here by default? The new accounts should not be like that and I never selected it that way.

Lastly, when I got my server, these were the ip's I was given. So the main Shared Virtual Host IP setting in whm setup, should be any number within the usable block, correct, 227-230? I am not sure the meaning of the network, gateway, or broadcast ip numbers.

224 network
225 gateway
226 server
227-.230 usable
231 broadcast

Thanks in advance.

Got if fixed. Default accounts were going here:

/usr/local/apache/htdocs

Because somehow I accidentally hit the "save current folder location as default", in that location at one time. However, users added are still able to go back and browse through the directory structure after logging into ftp. They can't do anything, but I prefer to not allow browsing outside of their own directory. Any ideas?
