Still its not very clear what exactly you want to do:
Assuming your database is in /opt/informix and you dont want users belogning to group xyz should get even read access to this directory. The command that should do this will be
chown root:root /opt/informix
chmod 770 /opt/informix : This command will make sure only user root and users belonging to group root can access this directory and no one else.
As you mention it is a live system please consult someone at hand before applying these commands. Because it could be possible depending upon your setup if user other than group root could be executing/reading from /opt/informix

ftpchroot
FTPCHROOT(5) BSD File Formats Manual FTPCHROOT(5)
NAME
ftpchroot -- list users and groups subject to FTP access restrictions
DESCRIPTION
The file ftpchroot is read by ftpd(8) at the beginning of an FTP session, after having authenticated the user. Each line in ftpchroot corre-
sponds to a user or group. If a line in ftpchroot matches the current user or a group he is a member of, access restrictions will be applied
to this session by changing its root directory with chroot(2) to that specified on the line or to the user's login directory.
The order of records in ftpchroot is important because the first match will be used. Fields on each line are separated by tabs or spaces.
The first field specifies a user or group name. If it is prefixed by an ``at'' sign, '@', it specifies a group name; the line will match
each user who is a member of this group. As a special case, a single '@' in this field will match any user. A username is specified other-
wise.
The optional second field describes the directory for the user or each member of the group to be locked up in using chroot(2). Be it omit-
ted, the user's login directory will be used. If it is not an absolute pathname, then it will be relative to the user's login directory. If
it contains the /./ separator, ftpd(8) will treat its left-hand side as the name of the directory to do chroot(2) to, and its right-hand side
to change the current directory to afterwards.
FILES
/etc/ftpchroot
EXAMPLES
These lines in ftpchroot will lock up the user ``webuser'' and each member of the group ``hostee'' in their respective login directories:
webuser
@hostee
And this line will tell ftpd(8) to lock up the user ``joe'' in /var/spool/ftp and then to change the current directory to /joe, which is rel-
ative to the session's new root:
joe /var/spool/ftp/./joe
And finally the following line will lock up every user connecting through FTP in his respective ~/public_html, thus lowering possible impact
on the system from intrinsic insecurity of FTP:
@ public_html
