    One Directory

    does anyone know how i would set it so that when a user logs in on ftp they would login into a directory i specified and not in the / directory because this will cause alot of potential problems because it gives access to everything

    Depends on which FTP server you are using. It can be done in most.

    its called a chrooted home directory, and using proftpd it is done through the
    DefaultRoot ~
    command

    The proftpd server however needs to be started as root or through (x)inetd
