creating user on SUSE Linux
Hi
I need to create a user who can have access on only one folder.
for example I created a user "test" . he should have access only on folder
/testfolder.
The problem is that the user will mostly use FileZilla to ftp his files in the testfolder.
In the fileZilla , i want him to be unable to read other folder than his own that is /testfolder. he should not be able to access any other folders under / .
Can anyone guide me
Thx
